they rot like fuck, last year i took the 1/4 off an 04 plate for a repair and there were rotten holes in the inner 1/4 panel and round the filler cap
if you dont climb all over it it would be very wary
you need to have the wheels off and get right into the arches and behind the bumper panels

crash damage hard to spot behind the plastic and the rivets that hold all that shit on are rubbish as are the holes they go into

personally i wouldnt

worth goin a bit higher and getting a sporty mk6 fiesta tho
