Hi folks, not a query this time, more of a "look what I found"!

I've just replaced the two non-matching and somewhat frayed seatbelts, and found that the bolt anchoring the drivers side buckle to the floor next to the transmission tunnel was just bolted into the floor, with no reinforcing plate. Good job I didn't have to rely on the belt, it would have pulled through very easily! If I were an MOT tester I would have failed this.

Not sure they have to check for quality of the mount - just for corrosion within 300mm...... Would hope they would mention it on an advisory though...........

no mentions on any advisories - now has a strong plate with captive nut welded on it on the underside, courtesy of ESM!
