What you see is only superficial. It is the state of the structure underneath that determines whether it is safe and whether it will pass an MOT. And unless you have the skills and equipment to do it yourself (which I don't), then welding is a very expensive service to pay for. Vehicle welders charge their weight in gold, and nothing else will pass the test. If the only rust was what you see then the car would still be going strong. Nothing you see there would fail an MOT. It was the rot underneath that was the problem. Our roads are heavily salted in the winter. It is like driving through sea water for four months of the year.
