yourletters STOLEN CATALYTIC CONVERTER This might be of interest to members. My wife took our E39 2.5 Touring to work. It’s 20-years old on the 1st of March. She normally takes our 1 Series but I said I would clean it for her. She phoned me around 5.30pm to say the exhaust was blowing when she was leaving work, I said it should be alright to drive it home. I couldn’t believe it when she got it home. You could hear the car for ages before she arrived. I looked underneath and could see where it had been cut and the catalytic converter stolen. Seeing the pictures from the security camera, two guys pulled up with high-vis jackets on, jacked it up on the side and took 10 minutes to cut it off and disappear. I thought it might be of interest to show that they are targeting older cars. I didn’t think for a minute they would sort these cars! Ian McAuley
