P*ssed off!
Well, was out in chester today with my mum and sister and we parked in a park and ride and all was good.
Got back to the car (landrover freelander) this afternoon and some theiving c*nt had stolen the catalytic converter!
I have heard of this happening before but the pure cheek!
They had cut the exhaust pipe each end of the cat with an angle grinder and left the rest of the system lying on the floor and we cant claim through the insurance as the excess is just over what the system and cat will cost to replace (£440!!) :doh:
P*ssed off aswell as because we need the car tomorrow to go to scotland (for reasons I will explain next week :halo: ) but luckily we found a quick fit who will get it done guaranteed for 2pm tomorrow.
Talking to the guy who came with the low loader its rife now and they can get £100 a cat
One upside of the whole ordeal tho is that the guy driving the low loader was a ford fanatic like me and we were discussing fords the whole way home. He has a mint S1 and a mk2 escort and we couldnt shut each other up the whole way home!!
Anyway, still p*ssed off tho!

I know! Was a really busy carpark too, buses every 5 minutes and cars coming in and out all day!
You would think you would be safe parking somewhere like that
