Catalytic converter nicked off my shed, Golf R left
Discussion
My tip run car a 2002 A3 1.8t had the catalytic converter stolen off it last night, at the time it was parked behind a new Golf R that they didn't touch. Why would they take it from an old car and not something newer ? The did alot of damage getting it off so going to gave to scrap the car unfortunately.

I understand that cats on older cars contain more precious metals and so are worth more in scrap value. The cats on newer cars contain less of the valuable metals.

Oh right that ties in with the fact I've since found out that another 2 cars so a total of 3 had them taken last night from the same road all are older cars.(Only what I have read so may be wrong)

Where are you? I was dropping some legitimate cats off on Friday morning in Brum and some likely lads had a set of cats for an Audi. Long shot but I didn’t like the look of em.
