Really glad that I opened this project thread, as I've just bought a corsa with a fair bit of rot.
Mine has it in the wheel well, probably arches, a bit underneath and the sills. I'm determined to fix it all though and reading through your project thread is definitely giving me some inspiration! Thank you
