Wow! Another saloon :D . Mine is a 1.7GLE 1988. Yours looks in better condition though. Enjoyed your "rusty" pictures makes me wish I'd taken out the camera yesterday when I removed the trim from the rear door and found what looked to be the innards in a pile of rust blocking the drainage holes!

Oh! Duvel78, I managed to fix the rear lock, the small clip was in amongst the rust!
