Used a poker to find the rust no doubt, at least thats what they did to mine.
Mx5's are there to be enjoyed, hopefully you will enjoy some cutting and welding and get it back through the test

No the guy was reasonable enough, 2 of the areas I knew about but never got a xhance to tackly before test, i was surprised by the third but it was obvious enough, I bought a mig welder recently and going to tackle it myself, one of the sill will just a rough patch Job to get nct cert before I my insurance runs out and I take it off the road for the winter, don't really need rhe second car expense atm. I intend on doing a proper clean up over the winter again

The curse of the dreaded tin worm. Great that you have a welding machine and will tackle it yourself. I have tried to find welding night classes in the Midlands, but without luck. Would like to develop some skills in that area, as I'm sure it will come in handy in the future!
