Very common place for the most solid of Mk2s to rot, strip out trim, and get the wholes welded up...

As long as surrounding material is sound, then shouldn't be any more than a few hours welding, and re under sealing, somewhere around the £120 mark should cover it, though worth checking the rest of the car over on a ramp, just to make sure the rest of the car is sound, before committing!
