When I bought my TF 3 1/2 years ago the sill ends of my car were very similar although this issues didn't rise up the wheel arches. As it was a very good car mechanically I went ahead and bought it.

The following year I ground off all the rust and applied a rust cure and paint. Late this year I was able to put my finger through small holes that has appeared on the inside of the front sills. I've had it looked at and been advised that both can be repaired relatively easily without going down the full Mike Satur repair panel route.

Hope this helps.
