nagh it had £300 of work done on it at the last 2 mots, in that area, to stop the rust, the rust you see now is just the surface rust on the re-welded panel.

You'll restore the car? And sell the white 340?

current plan is the black car (name suggestions??) sits under a tarpaulin for 1 or 2 years to keep it dry, while i drive my white car (nessy). then when nessy dies after 200,000m, i will strip and scrap her, and fit all of the goodies onto the glt, then start driving it instead.

Yeah it looks kinda grey in the pics atleast. :P
Black is rare color for 300-series here in Finland. I have seen one black GLT here.
