The cheapest option would be a down pipe with a dummy cat welded to it.

plus
Basically, cat or no cat, it has to pass the smoke test. In fact it doesn't mention cats at all.
Taking ages, not started welding yet!!!!
But then it is getting difficult for stuff.
I am not good at welding, also anything hard work forget it. Still on crutches as well from leg injury.
My prefered places either don't weld, or just gone.
Tried another local specialist, went quiet on me.
Tried the final one, no response.
Anyway
Not many garages doing this sort of work.
If they do difficult to get in contact.
Or they are too busy.
Or cannot do in time.
Biggest mistake was asking for MOT as my usual tester would not be going so thorough, I think on Monday I will let them into a secret, my dad before retirement was an MOT tester.
So looked at a temp car, nothing under £1.5k locally.
The days of a few hundred quid banger are long gone.
If we want to go anywhere this weekend it will be a case of taxi.

Not at all happy but rock and hard place.
As to getting better no idea but 5 months so far.
Work colleagues have been warned, next time i will beat the covid spreader to death.
All i had was rough breathing, then ok except no energy, felt like anemia, then worse.
So far no energy at all, only short term burst. Vertigo, still being investigated for left side weakness.

One of the two wires was damaged, will remove and refit earth and the other I will strip out and resolder the joint to rule that out.
