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.

As said its fixable, no point in scrapping a car for a hole like that imo. Is the arch liners in the car?

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.

Thanks for the good times guys n gals. I might be back. Who knows.
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.  ![[Image: car-1.jpg]](http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k591/grant-306/car-1.jpg) Member of the 99% warning or you're nothing club 2000 Moonstone 1.8 Meridian - Sold 2000 China 3dr XS - Dead 1998 Diablo 3dr XSI

Yeh you can fix that. Fairly common and a good reason to get a welder.
