That doesn’t look too bad for me…. They are sills as there is no chassis, the body is monocoque. Front and rear sub frames hold the major components.

If it’s a factory fit tow bar, the Westfalia one, I believe they are no longer available so could be quite sought after. Never fitted or removed one myself but I believe there are some quite hefty brackets you will need to put back if you remove it. You will need to source those first. Might be easier to just leave it on if it’s not in the way.

Thanks for the feedback. Yes it does tick all the other boxes thank you. It’s almost perfect in every other way. No rust on tailgate etc. paintwork literally has only a few stone chips and that’s it. Good point on the chassis. Forgot it was monocoque 😂 I’m happy to take the trim off if I purchase the vehicle and treat any light damage with kurust etc and then Lanoguard etc. just didn’t want to remove the sill covers to be faced with welding etc. That would be a no no for me. |

No I don’t think that’s the one on this vehicle. This looks like what seems to be fitted.

Rechecked the vehicle with sill covers off and all is completely sound. They were is as good as condition as the bodywork 😀 I pick her up next week 😀

You will absolutely love it Daz. I will have mine a year next week and I have used it much more than I anticipated at the expense of my M5. The L322 is such a brilliant all rounder. |

How have you found it so far Daz? Looking at very similar spec cars at the moment. |
