Is this rust an MOT fail?

Postby ferguson_tom » Thu Mar 08, 2018 11:39 am

Hi Everyone,

I knew my transit would eventually need a bit of welding when i bought it but had a good poke around last night before the MOT and created this hole in the inner sill just behind the front wheel. Image
The outside sill is solid still and a apart from the mudguard bracket dont think anything of importance bolts to it or near it. its booked in for an MOT on Friday is it worth taking still or has it no hope of passing? I have taken old landrovers for MOTs before with holes in the floor which have passed but not sure about the sills on this.

I will get the work done as apart from this and a small area of corrosion on the rear nearside sill its pretty solid underneath and in good condition, but its a job i would rather do when weather warms up a bit!

Many thanks in advance. Tom
