Scrap it then if you cba!

But as garreth said, just cut about 50 mill further around the rust, cut a new sheet and weld it in. Then primer, and paint over and it will be fine

why faff about with a rusty corsa when you can buy a mint one with a better engine and more equipment for less than £900?

seems like you're taking the 'money pit' route!

I welding up the rear of my old car which was a 1.6 gsi 1993. Water from rear wheels mashed up the arches and went all the way through. Bastard to fix unless you are a pro id say. Was my 1st time with metal and a welder mind you.
