We had a news story the other night here in Perth where scum are stealing catalytic convertors.
Home CCTV shows a car drive past a house in the middle of the night. Then somone runs into the driveway, slides under the 4WD using a battery powered saw and cuts off the catalytic convertor, gone in 3 minutes. Owner comes out, starts up his car to go to work, WTF. They interviewed a guy at an exhaust shop and said he's seeing more of it lately. One car yard had 4 cars done. Apparently worth about $200 at the scrap metal dealer. Police in WA are trying to make scrap dealers more accountable and keep records like pawn shops have to. This mainly because of water meters and copper being stolen. So just a warning so you don't become a victim.
