Soldato
"It's got a funny rattle.." that's what the guy told me. Worse when he goes over big bumps.
So i take it out for a quick drive (cap, dark glasses and false beard, don't want to be seen in a '51 Corsa!) and the noise seems to be coming from the exhaust.
I jack it up and the back box is absolutely fubar, seams have let go and it sounds like a bag of gravel when i give it a kick.
He's keen to get it sorted as he's got his MOT next week. Hour or so later and the new backbox is on and the noise is gone, everybody is happy.
Until i pick up the old back box and "stuff" falls out.
Rang the motor factors and new cat is more than i'd pay for the whole car!
Isn't there a cheaper option for cleaning the exhaust gases?
Think he's in for an expensive MOT
