Miserable B******s!!!!!!
Some filthy inbred w***er has decided to help himself to my Catalytic Converter.
I hope the skullf***er chokes on it. Anybody know someone in the Tipton area that can come out and fit a replacement that wont cost the earth?

Unfortunately no. They talked about adding it after a spate of vandalisms but they caught those responsible before they voted on it, so it was never fitted.

Not that its any comfort but there's a bit on the BBC News website about the rise in Catalytic Converter thefts.

Sorry to hear of this, It's been rampart around the Bolton area & these lowlifes don't even wait until darkness to cut them off with a cordless power saw They know PC Plod isn't going to be coming any time soon.

*UPDATE*
MIJ in Walsall have offered to replace it for £160 inc fitting, and the AA have offered to trailer it there for £110, so total cost £270 Still an expense I could have done without, but at least it won't bankrupt me.

Really sorry to hear this.
There has been a few theft's around my area, and my wife works in a supermarket where her car is left out of view for long periods. I'm expecting the phone call to say hers has been robbed any day now.
