Scrap Metal
I remember seeing a post on one of the variations of maxxd over the past few years about CATS and people weiging them in and getting 50-60 quid for them
Where and who do this as i have a couple that are surpless to my requirements and rather than them sat in my shed id quite like a bit of cash!
1. Top 100 Show Car 2. 13 sec 250+bhp RWD monster 3. Daily runabout well detailed 4. New Toy..The Track Car - but i know fuck all about this scene........
Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.

RE: Scrap Metal
no way dude is a scrapper gonna give u that much for a CAT.
whole scrap cars fetch no more than that, so if u want that much money maybe think about the the punto.

RE: Scrap Metal
Its just something i remembered seeing
Maybe it wasnt quite that much
But to be fair if it was £20 that would be better in my pocket!
Plus there aint enough metal left on the punto..there is more on the cat

RE: Scrap Metal
There was a place near where I work that had a load of lorries or something that had their CATs stolen recently. They found used hacksaw blades everywhere. Apparently they do fetch good money at scrap metal places.

RE: Scrap Metal
Friendly neighbourhood Pikeys will usually be more than happy to take CATS of you for £15-£20. They do fetch very good money when sold to the right place as one of the catalysts used to coat the ceramic brick inside is platinum.

Yeah that's it mate, the metal itself is worthless, it's the rhodium, platinum and palladium inside that is worth the cash.
