Title: I don't believe it, watch your cat
Post by: Stan_2 on 18 October 2011, 22:43:21

They nicked the cable from the railways, now they're having a go at nicking the catalytic converters.

Watch your cars.

The start of the credit crunch in 2008 and high prices for precious metals resulted in a noticeable increase in thefts of catalytic converters. Thieves simply cut the catalytic converter from the exhaust pipe of a parked car and sell them on to scrap metal dealers.

Is there nothing safe now.  >:(

Yep, been going on a while.  My dad had both his cats 'removed' from this Ford Explorer while it was parked up in Gatwick airport when he was on holiday.

Mine was removed yesterday off my diesel, I was disappointed with the performance that was gained though. Still i'll get £100 for the cat when I weigh it in ::)
