found some rust whilst cleaning out the car today... brown stains running down the carpet sides of the boot...
[attachment=15974]
looks pretty shitty to me.. i've seen this is a commonish problem, fixable? or should i just scrap it, get something different / better?
That's not even a big hole compared to some I've seen!
If you can weld its fixable...if not, might be a bit pricey at garage.
time to get a new welder then
As said its fixable, no point in scrapping a car for a hole like that imo. Is the arch liners in the car?

I'm gonna hazard a guess here and say probably not.
nah no arch liners, is that a PH1 thing? or are mine just missing?
gonna go through the entire car finding and fixing rust now... any other common areas to check first?
Mine was way worse but I sorted it had to cut the whole inner rear quarter out. My other half's was like yours took my about 5 hours plated Sean sealed and we are undersealing today.
Phase 1 and 2 don't have a full liner on the nearside rear. Most ph3 estates don't either. You should have the other 3 on all models though.
Oh, and while you're checking for rust, check the chassis rails at the front, and the bulkhead on the driverside.
