Just had a prod round the Mini with the MOT man.

New o/s sill
About 4" of new o/s floor needed to form the "inner sill"
Hole in the o/s floor pan where it kicks up to form the bulkhead
Both rear wheel arches gone through where they "close" the sills necessitating a drop of the sub frame
Patch in n/s sill about the size of a credit card needed

Whilst the MiG kit is out, might as well replace the crusty battery box

Like captain Darling, I made a note in my diary just now. Just wrote "bugger"

Now all done and back on the road for another year after sills, floors, battery box and patches in the rear wheel arches to stop the rot getting anywhere close to the rear subframe mounts.

And breathe.....
