As a longer term solution, you could fit a pair of flanges on each pipe just the right size for a pair of universal cats. Fit them for the MoT, and keep the plain inserts for the rest of the time. Obviously not legal, but a bolt in/out solution to prevent it happening again.

Did they leave the precats?  :-\

Also, probably a bit late now, but any evidence of hand prints on the car? The chap in red doesn't appear to be wearing gloves... Possible his mate is equally retarded...  :-\

Cant be too bright if they nicked the cats off a 2.6. They arent worth much anyway.
This would be a good opportunity to fit a pair of 2.5 / 3.0 cats.

They’d have got a shock if they’d nicked the cat off my son’s old truck, as it was completely hollow.  ;D

Maybe , but my emissions at MOT since i owned it have been ZERO CO and very low HCs
I doubt i'll get that with aftermarket cats .

Priced the scrap price of 3.2 cats last month and was quoted £350 for all 4,for some strange reason the pre cats have there own part number although not available separately.

Christ ! Istr they used to be almost worthless, when 2.5 / 3.0 cats were just over £100 a pair for scrap.
Wonder how much the early ones are worth now.  :-\

The thieving scumbags will have to sell what they steal to a middle man (probably dodgy scrapyard) ,who will then sell on to WARR or similar ,so they won't get much , but do 20 a night ,plus other stuff ,i bet they earn more than me  >:(

I still have the pre-cats , I'll probably buy some main cats and have them welded in , got aftermarket shyte to fit in the mean time ,at least i'll have my onega back and not have to use an Astra  :D
