Hi,
Just a word about the ABS card.

I have found that not all VX dealers accept the ABS card.

Aparently either the dealer or ABS have to register, not sure which, and unless there are a few ABS card holders using the dealer they don't reckon worth registering.

I don't have a problem. When I show my ABS card, the dealer I use just makes the receipt out to some other TC club.

If the cat is the only problem I'd put up with it until it starts failing MOTs. Had a rattly one on my last car but it sailed through about 4 MOTs like it.

Not sure how much a genuine VX cat would be. Probably something you'd be best off discovering in a seated position. :-/

Other option is to look out for a 2nd hand one.

Sounds like a good result then :y If the previous one was non genuine it should be a bit more refined with the new one on it.
