Are you gonna be at Shitefest, Tom?

I may have a few I could bring along then - saves us postage.

 

I am going to Shitefest and live 5 minutes away from Toms yard,  happy to lug a bootful of bits and bobs each way.

[KruJoe]

That's very handy to know, thank you Rich. If Tom doesn't make it, then I may well take you up on that.

 

Tom, do you give a good price for batteries too?

[D Spares & Tyres]

Fiat Multipla cats around £70 / £80 each if they are off seperate cars. If you mean the manifold cat and the secondary cat off the later ones then will only be around £30 each

 

Batteries, I can`t get a  much better rate than a local yard its just cats as I take them miles away to one of the main cat places. I can give £1 per kg for old computer circuit boards though

Meant to put this in another topic

[messerschmitt owner]

so, as I am now breaking a Citroen XM - how much for an original 1996 2.1td diesel cat?

[D Spares & Tyres]

No idea with out seeing it,never weighed in an XM.   Not alot I shouldn`t think sorry

[mercedade]

Hi Tom,

 

An original cat from a '98 Rover 820 Vitesse? What code is it you need? (struggling to see any kind of stampings under the surface rust)

 

Thanks

[brickwall]

Is it true there be a book that the trade use that shows all the stuff in the different cats and value ?

[John F]

Thats exactly how I get the more awkward ones out when I can`t get the grinder in apart from I use a shogun

 

Quite spectacular when removing manifold cats from cars with them at the front. often takes rad and bumper out too . I love brutality

 

lol... I misread that as "shotgun".

 

Fantastic mental image.

it's about five inches long and is a pain in the butt to remove and I'll just leave it there unless it's worth like £50+

Is it Unipart? If you can`t see any numbers at all then its probably aftermarket as they are made of cheaper metal and rust quicker than originals. Pic?

[D Spares & Tyres]

I would leave it there then, I would of thought £30 max on that age of Citroen. If its even original. 

 

I`ve just taken the manifold cat off that Cuore. Aftermarket. Worth £1.50. But not easy to tell that til its off on one of those. Wasn`t worth the effort really!

[mercedade]

That Rover 820 cat code - WAG103640, stamped on both sides of the cat.

 

Any other codes you need?

Cheers

[D Spares & Tyres]

Thats an original one, I`ll find you a price tomorrow

[2MB]

Are they worth taking off a vw polo 6n petrol? Got one returning to earth at the side of the house because scrap is so low, may as well have some bits off the bastard

[D Spares & Tyres]

if its original and full should be worth around £30

[The Old Bloke Next Door]

all depends on it being original or not. if you cound find the code on it or take a photo I could tell you then. you may need to sand the surface rust off to see the code

I'll have a look next week, thanks.

[derskine]

I got a polo mk2f manicat, is that worth owt?

[D Spares & Tyres]

Got a value but not a fortune! Codes please!!! £25 at a guess, manifold cats aren`t that good

[derskine]

If I can find the cat itself I'll get a code, it's buried somewhere but useless to me.

[Mr_Bo11ox]

Sounds like a right fuck on this, its gonna cost at least a tenner to post a cat right? To then get £30-40 back? Plus dodgy tom's got to make his margin on it whatever that is. Have to say, if I had a spare cat id weigh it in myself instead of posting it to a third party for him to weigh in!

[KruJoe]

That's why I'll chuck a few in a box in the boot when I go to Shitefest, and hopefully see Tom there. If he can't make it, then Cats-int-welder Rich can bob them across to him.

[stephen01]

how much on a ford Ka. 1.3 petrol?

[sierraman]

Why not just take it to the breakers yourself would be easier?

[D Spares & Tyres]

Because they will rob you on price and I won`t. I`m not greedy. I drive a 1999 Shogun.  My local yard owner drives a brand new Bentley with his name on the plate.....

 

Hermes will post for about a fiver so long as you don`t say its a car part

 

i forgot to mention I can pick up from Staffordshire, Black Country, Birmingham and Mid Wales if that helps

[mercedade]

I'm all for the laziness option - this Rover cat has been sat in my kitchen for 3 months now, but of course I am definitely* just about to take it down the yard.

[D Spares & Tyres]

That Rover 820 cat code - WAG103640, stamped on both sides of the cat.

 

Any other codes you need?

Cheers

Around £35 - £40 depending how full it is
