I got the rear subframe stripped down today, it's not actually that bad but it will need replacing.
It started off like this

After a few hours it looked like this

Also it had these interesting spacers behind the radius arm brackets seemingly to give some more rear toe out, is this a van thing or has somebody fitted them, they look fairly factory.

A little more done today, the front subframe is all apart, this looks in good condition so I will reuse it hopefully, the front hubs are metro ones I believe with 4 pot calipers perhaps somebody can confirm this? I won't be fitting them back on as I shall be using 10 inch wheels.

Here are a couple of pictures
