Default Scrap value of catalytic converters?

Anyone clued up on the rough value of cats at the moment? Got a few laying around the workshop gathering dust.

Bit of a grey one this as I've always thought any cats worth Ł40 secondhand but apparently scrappies are getting a bit more picky now and offering less for certain types.

depends on make and size, astra td ones go for Ł40 but i got Ł70 on a mk3 1.1 fiesta cat that was about the same size. originals are worth more than aftermarkets.

They can be worth anything from Ł7 to Ł250

Pug 306 hdi genuine ones are good money at the minute around Ł220

What the best way to get the best price? Ring around and tell them what you've got?

Must be worth something as the Pikies cut one of one of our Trannies when it was parked up in the yard
Cost us Ł180 to replace it
