Hi Sax-perience

Thank you all for sharing informations about this small Saxo...

I'm from Denmark and our cars is known to rust... I have just discovered that water came in to the back of the car. Sadly it is quite rusty

Is it possible to get a repair piece for this since it's not a flat metal plate. I think it's quite difficult to repair. Do anyone has a photo of this after reparing??

Is it possibler to get a repair piece?

Thank you in advance...

No replacement panel available its a case of cutting a piece of metal then welding it to the car.

should be able to repair it I would of thought, doesn't matter that much if it isnt shaped exactly as original as its a hidden part anyway

Thats right. It's just much easier to repair and a much better repair if a repair part was available. In DK there is very little spare parts available and I guess it's nearly impossible to find a proper piece to cut out from the car scrap yard.

Thank you for fast reponse. We do have a Danish Citroen Forum called citronik.dk but it's not with that many posts as this forum.

I'll try to weld some plates together... :-) If there are any other places I should look for, please respond. Until now, I have found rust underneath the seats (at the beams) and a little at the front beams just in front of the front wheels where plastic inner liner is attached.
