How much is a cat worth?

[Joe205]

Just wondering if anyone knows the scrap value of a cat these days? From a t reg dturbo?

[Birk]

Depends if it's genuine or aftermarket.

Anything from £0-160, but I highly doubt it will be at the top end of that scale.

[Ruan]

Genuine ones normally go for about £70 or so in my experience... Aftermarket ones about £30-40...

[Joe205]

If I post a pic up will anyone be able to tell me if its genuine or not?

[Just Sean]

It should have a code stamped on it somewhere. Google it and you can normally find out if you search hard enough. Got 80 for mine out of a hdi

Depends what breed of cat tbh. My friend will pay good money for a decent tabby but hates Persians
Most people don't deal with many of the "big cats" but they're generally worth a bit more. Lynx being quite rare iirc
So it can be hit and miss but I hope this helped :-)

Surprisingly good analogy!

[Joe205]

Cheers guys! Much appreciated!

Scrap value of a diesel partical filter is nothing more than the steel its made from if you cant sell it to someone privately

[Joe205]

Really? I thought they were more? O well hey!

[Stephen]

Scrap it and find out!

Some of the genuine ones are worth a bit more than you might think but most scrap dealers have cottoned on to this and will rob you blind and give you £40 and tell you you're lucky to get that.
Find a specialist that deals in nothing but catalytic converters and contact them for a good price.

If they are ceramic Dpf they are worthless, but if they are platinum finished they they are worth money

[Toms306]

They aren't DPFs.

I got £45 for a genuine mk4 golf diesel cat, depends entirely on the car and the cat contents tbh.

[sweeney1987]

DPF's only came in around 05.
doubt a treg dturbo has one...
meanwhile cats were bunged onto everything prior to this until they learned more...
