Just seen this old guy pass by as I was taking the exhaust of my car, he came over to have a chat as he always does and he told me that his son went to go to work this morning and got in the car started it and made hell of a noise, he got out and had a look under and some bugger had pinched his cat converter, just unbolted the clamps either side of the unit and left the rest of the exhaust hanging. He couldn't tell me what make of car his son owned but I said to him I assume the cats are expensive new on those cars and someone didn't want to buy a new one. He said that's the thing, apparently there were a few cars with missing converters in that area this morning. Not sure where the lad lives exactly but it's just over the welsh border somewhere.

What is the scrap value on these?

There was a spout of this local to me, they had been down to the local breakdown place and got a grinder out on a couple of the lorries, apparently they are worth up to £500 scap on lorries, a couple of brand new range rovers got done too so I heard on the grapevine

decat ftw

But seriously thats a proper scummy thing to do

They took my dads a year or two ago when he had a 4x4 for work.
I think they just used a pipe cutter on his so he decided to get it decatted.

All the sainsbury's vans got done at the local one. Now, they all have a big sticker on the back saying they have a cat lock on them. Basically just a clamp around the cat with a chain bolted to the body which is silly if you ask me because if they are willing to cut your exhaust apart to nick your cat, they will happily cut a tiny little chain!

EFA.
