i'm increasing worried about the rust on this car, some parts are what you'd expect e.g. below tailgate behind bumper but this discovery has got me really worried...!
Any advice as to how i go about rectifying it will be gratefully received, see pics
The loose plate is Volvo's way of making a flat level floor, imagine the shape
The floor would be if not there.
They left it loose because the rear wiring harness runs through.
