Scrap or restore ?

[EColi147]

M20 been sitting in open not moved for 18 months !

MOT Fail section (6.1.B.2) Body or chassis excessive corrosion.
Front Sills
o/s/r Sill
Body mountings behind rear wheels
o/s/f strut under bonnet
o/s/f A pillar

MOT Fail section (6.1.C.1) Sharp edge caused by corrosion.
o/s/f and n/s/r

There are a few others but nothing major (indicator bulbs etc.)

Thoughts ?

Can you weld?

[Cypriotgeeza]

As soon as you see excessive corrosion..in all them areas especially Body mountings..walk away!

Or get us some pics of the corrosion and we can advise you better!

Nothing is un fixable, look at the 323I resto, epic

[andysheep]

Iv learnt to weld and paint,and i love it,its a labour of love and i cant get enough,if its worth it do it,but weigh it up,the lads on here will tell if its a true folly

I love some posts...... What exactly is it(?) as no ones asked what model it is?

It could be a low mile 325i convertible / sport for all we know. In which case it could well be worth persevering with. If it's some bog basic 320 with intergalactic mileage then frag the shitter!

Frag it and post gape pics, please

I like the don't know option. I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure.

In 2020 it might be worth restoring!
