Good news...

Was going to say..........where’s that photo? :laugh:

Good Luck, will be worth it when it is all done.

They asked me to strip the interior out (to stop it catching fire!) before it gets welded next week...

The underside of the carpet was sopping wet and as you can see there is quite a bit of surface rust as well... So will have to sort that when the car is returned back to me!

If anyone happens to know where the likely ingress points for water is, I would be grateful... I am currently thinking the heated windscreen might have a dodgy seal or something like that, although could also quite easy be the normal hole to the interior fan that leaks on most ZS's!

Oh and I know that the seatbelt mounting is rusty, so will replace all the seatbelts when it is back as well.

Could be the screen. Part of it wasn’t working so might pay to get it removed, check the wiring and get it re-bonded. Check grommets behind the fuse box and bulkhead area in general whilst it is stripped.

not as bad as I thought it might be, good luck with it.

Update from the welder... Photos below :) (Car will be back with me this afternoon!)

think all our cars are heading this way.

just wanting to save them, will keep them out of the scrap yards. You just do not see any ZS about, even the ZR's are getting rare.

well done for keeping the love.

Looks sorted to me...

Looks to be good work there Sam.
