Am I missing a body bolt?

Hey folks, was under the disco having a visual inspection for any leaks and noticed that I may be missing a bolt, could be wrong so thought I would post up a pic for advice.

It's on the drivers side in between the front and rear door?



The opposite side has a similar recess and that has a bolt.

With an MY13 you would hope not to have had the body off yet Shocked

But it does look although one is missing.

Cheers guys, body has never been removed and I have been the owner from new. I have been getting a slight knocking noise every now and then so this may answer my question.

What alarms me most is how the hell did it pass LR quality control check/measures with a missing body bolt and it's also never been picked up during its annual services Crying or Very sad

It's only ever been to the main stealers as I have had the 3 year service plan from new, it's going in for its 3rd service next few months.

Don't worry I will be asking the question!!

Isn't this where the side bars bolt on ? Previous owner whipping them off quickly before selling ?
