Hey stu

Whens the welder coming to have a look? Hopfully its a simple job for him

At least its just one point it failed on, and the weldings normally a one off repair to each section. Im dreading my s3\'s first mot :o

well yeah I suppose it is one point , just both bloody sides

Its just annoying when it had £200 worth of welding at the start of the year

Its become a large(ish) pit of money at the mo :(

It\'s not too big a job Stu on initial inspection and easy to get access to.

Yeah old cars suck for bleeding you dry. At least its nicer, more interesting and different to a modern german silver generic piston powered  car :p

Oh and pop up headlights too :) its gotta be worth the money for all that ? :)

well tis all true

I just hope the welding doesn\'t effect the paint on the outside of the car

Its gonna be a squeeze for RS10 at this rate

Wet sponge with cold water held against it by yourself Stu whilst he welds. Don\'t forget to keep refreshing the water in the sponge, that should sort you. Looking at what you\'ve got he\'ll be feathering the trigger anyway rather than a continuous run, so less heat build up anyway.

I don\'t think that will help as I will be at work when hes welding :( :(

Wow lots of welding I have a 2p hole in the cill where i lowered the ramp on a screwdriver that got stuck in a ramp.

Stu that doesn\'t look too bad from what I can see. It should be easy enough to repair by someone experienced with welding.
