She's finally rusted out.....

MOT failed on significant rear end corrosion, beyond economical repair. The fun comes to an end... its a shame as everything works on her, sound engine with no oil consumption, smooth gears, aircon, suspension, FBH, the whole lot

So what's next D4, D5, something Volvo..?

worth getting a price to weld it, they seem to be getting cheaper to repair these days as more are being done and sills are available pre made
 Must stop buying shiny toys....

I kind of knew it was coming. The previous owner used it green laning quite a bit and I'd already replaced sills and had welding done to get through last year.
