Dreaded tin worm...

[insideline]

has caught the o/s/r sill and wheel arch and no doubt the n/s/r one as well. I assume this will be a replacement sill job.

Can anyone recommend a reliable well priced repairer in the Derby / East Midlands area?

Thanks

I would get it sorted ASAP and after its done I would get it waxoyl'd aswell and nice and protected for the winter months.

Steve at 5-Speed in Nottingham should be able to sort it out for you.

I'm not really sure how much the repair would be so I don't really want to estimate. However, the waxoyl treatment shouldn't cost much more than £100 to be honest.

Mine is off to MX5 City, Doncaster to get both rear arches and sills sorted in 10 days time. I'm getting all the danger areas cut out and the the repair panels welded in. They'll also repair any internal panels and wax oil and treat all areas to make sure it does not happen again. The total cost is £700 + vat, which includes supplying the 2 repair panels. The work will take about a week.

I'll let you know how I get on.
