Still are doing the cats from Transits, and rangers and quite a few panel vans.
A new cat for a Transit will cost about £300, a Ranger costs £1000. And to really cheese you off, if you own a Mercedes Sprinter, you cant get an aftermarket one, you HAVE to buy the MB one, at a cost of £900..

Whit a shower of c**ts!!! Would agree about the stolen to order or someone looking to replace their own knackered/missing bits. The ZS isn't as common as say fiestas etc so just randomly stealing bits from them doesnt add up quite as much imo.
Hopefully you can get all the bits you need at an ok price.

That's terrible. Also sick thinkng that there's a ZS driver out there somewhere who would stoop to the level of stealing or buying stolen parts

Assuming he knew... how many parts have you purchased second hand from ebay etc? How many of them can you guarantee are no stolen?

I did think of that as I typed. I'd find it hard to believe a thief would randomly steal them parts unless someone had specifically requested them. Someone requesting parts from unscrupulous places must know there's a chance the parts might not be clean. But.. benefit of the doubt and all that, I see your point.
