thanks guys, but in terms of a repair im not feeling it.

I just think the welding will be expensive, and then i have other existing issues to deal with which are equally expensive, and i think maybe this is one of them situations you stop and think, and bit the bullet and move on.

Shame, but after a good look around i just think maybe this isnt as fixable as I hoped.

Always hard when you can't do the fixing yourself. If you have other issues about the place then you may be right. I had a look round ggggoooooogle and the xtrails seem to be the terrano's big brother when it comes to rust. Have you had the carpets up and so on ? I suspect there will be plenty more once you look in

yh The XTrails are as prone as the Terrano to rust, lots of crevices underneath that hold moisture, double skinned body work to hold moisture and so forth. I havent pulled up the carpets, and i aint gonna! No point now...
