Hi all, probably well covered before, but in these crazy times are all standard cats worth strong money?

That would be really appreciated Nicky. Its still on the car, but I'll hopefully get it out this week and come back to you if that's ok?
Yeah no probs I just use this website

It’s pretty accurate price wise maybe 10-20 quid difference but will give you an idea if your sitting with a 50 quid or 500 quid cat

You could probably sign up and use it yourself

Cats were at an all time high about two weeks ago but have levelled off. T-met giving strong money now too Jack

The CAT is finally out of the bag :rolleyes: Just by way of an update, I have checked the code on the Puma CAT and according to Ecotrade Group (thanks Nicky Glanza) its currently worth around £180, although I will wait and see what I can physically get for it from the likes of Tmet. Another point to note, it was a complete headache to remove, so if anyone has a Puma, don't be afraid of anyone crawling underneath it and nicking your CAT, it wouldn't be that simple or worth the effort to be honest.

819 price below, can only do 1 free search a day on eco trade so sign up to see 041 price. It’s usually fairly accurate

Sold the cat off my MX5 last month for £610!

Raised enough to pay for stainless manifold, 200 cell race cat and a short shift kit from IL Motorsports in Germany. Even had £60 left over for fitting.

Hopefully the smile won't be wiped off my face next month come MOT time.....

That’s a result! (As long as you don’t fail on emissions!) I’ve taken out one of the cats and replaced the second one with a sports cat. Hopefully it’ll pass too

I asked on the NI MX5 FB groups and there were a number of people with 200 cell cats - all passed NI MOTs ok with no issue so I *should* be ok....

My 94 1.8 passes mot with no cat. Not sure what yours is or if there are tighter restrictions on newer cars
