At the end of last year I had welding done at the front end to get the car though it's MOT (front spring seats) and refreshed the front suspension with new arms and shocks. Since then I have had problems with the ECU, documented elsewhere on the forum, which has stopped me putting it through its MOT. So, I decide to drop the rear subframe to fit all the new parts I have had in the garage for ages (All new arms and newly purchased shocks).
Unfortunately when I took the subframe out and had a good bang around I found the horror story that is in the attached pictures, both sides are about the same and all four jacking points are the same.
I have come to the conclusion (too late) that I am simply throwing good money after bad and need to take all the parts off that I can sell and scrap what is left. I have been here before and should have listened to my common sense side before I started the welding last time.
So, try to convince me that I am wrong and should plough on regardless but preferably support me in what MUST be the right way forward.
