   Well as it says. Basically went to replace the outer trim clips on my vtr as there all broken. Found a few holes in the sills one jacking point come away from yhe car and the boot floor has gone on one side i would like some advice/experience on is it worth fixing as its pretty bad and vts converting or taking my chances with rust and upgrading to a vts and using mine for spares.

   i might be ok with a few quid spent on welding. Most saxos now will need some if they havent been looked after religiously, even the very late ones
