   Any one seen anything similar on a saxo? Its my old one was just curious about it. Looking down it with a torch there is no material inside, seems the conical thing is empty as I can see any cat material/mesh inside what so ever. Looks like I'll need a new one come MOT time

   Can't see that being an actual cat, its no bigger than your foot...unless you have massive feet.
   
   Probably just a dummy cat.

   Cant see why anyone would fit a dummy cat though as this came off the car before the stupid regulations. I'll order a new cat for MOT time but I was just curious as to what this kind is as I've never seen one like this fitted to a saxo
