General Front subframe wows

View attachment 471037just taken it off my 1.3 multiget cross.
Does this look salvageable. I have been over it all with a heavy chisel. A oil leak looks like it has preserved the centre.

I'd replace it if I could, its part of the crash structure, it's designed to fail in a predictable way dropping the engine down instead of pushing through the car

To get somebody to weld it properly is approximately £425

But you may not have an option, last time I looked for a rear one they were only available in Italy, no idea on the availability of the front

A garage i went to quoted £2k

To cut the sill off and rebuild the inner sill, jacking point and C pillar, plus painting is £750 per side


That roughly twice the work, than I can see in the photos

£2k sounds wrong to me, unless it's worse than the photos show

I am hopeful a new one can be found

Out of stock

But at least they are made

Pardon our interruption...

You might struggle, from italy

Have you checked all UK breakers.
