Doing some rust assessment on my Disco 1 that I now have owned for a couple of months. Dont really know why I'm liking the car more and more the more I drive it, even our dog prefers riding the Disco 1 over our other cars 
So I knew there was some rust when buying the car but didn't really know how bad it was, but reading other threads I'm starting to thing its kind of OK. The funny part is that if I would have found this much rust in any other of our cars I wouldn't spend one more penny on it
So I will have a friend repairing the the rust as I cant really spend time on that issue right now. But I will try to source as many replacement panels as I can. So some help on what panels I need would really be appreciated, and also if I should look for rust in other parts. I will try to repair most of the rust from the back to the B pillar for now, I know there is a small amount of rust (holes) in the foot well on the drivers side but I will leave that for now. I live in Sweden so if anyone knows if panels can be found here would be great or if one can recommend a UK shop that ships to Sweden, found https://rimmerbros.com/ and I think they ship to Sweden.
So some picture:
Body mounts in the rear, they have rotten badly and will be replaced. Ive seen these being bought but dont know it there is a part number for these?
The boot floor looks ok and feels solid except for a hole in the right side, maybe a patch is enought here? Whats worse is the panel under the rear door on the inside and outside of the door. Dont know if this is one big panel that can be replaced or multiple? Guess I need to remove the rear bumper also to check how everything looks there.
The left side back wheel arch is the worst and the belt mount has rusted loose. This will make it fail the next inspection and must be repaired. I think I need MWC4841 and maybe I should replace the whole inner wheel arch as well with ALR3789. I have seen patches that go where the belt mount is but I have rust on the side as well that goes further back.
Dont know what to do about the rust on the floor, some kind of panel or patch?
This is from below (left side), so maybe replacing the whole sill also instead of patching is easier?
Right side Sill.
Any feedback regarding replacement panels or anything else would be very appreciated. Dont know that to do on all the surface rust, grind it down and protect it with some kind of coating?
The car doesn't need to get into perfect condition, I'm aiming to get maybe 100 000 km more out from it. The interior is in really good condition, the engine runs great, etc. The only thing I know doesnt work is the cruise control and one of the front seat heaters.
