Cat Cost?

[crofter]

Car just been through it,s MOT and the Co test recorded double the max allowed so new cat is needed.

Been quoted £400 all in for a R103 replacement.

Lambdas are quoted as acceptable.

Is this reasonable?

We had to replace ours last year. £630 -ish so your deal sounds pretty good.

Thanks for the reply,Charlie.

Unfortunately I am not able to do the fittng myself at the mo,but does show me what they can be bought for and I suppose the price is not bad considering it does'nt look to be a 10 minute job fitting it!!

Don't forget to keep the old CAT for scrap value Del - will help to cover part of cost for new one

Many thanks for the input,Jim

It does sound that it is a good deal.

I have had good service from there previously and it sounds like I am still getting it,and that is from a one man owner/mechanic.

Sorry Del I took 400 all in as inc the VAT. Didn't realise it included fitting !
