Hi all.
Just come to wash/polish my pug and realised there is no wheel arch liner on the passenger side rear. There is one on other side, is this normal? Your comments welcome.

Its a ph3 estate as in his profile lol...so yes its normal not to have a full liner there. Check for inner arch rust around the seatbelt mount!!

Yeah very hard for an estate, its only the very late estates that got them, 51 plates on usually. You might be able to bodge a hatch one in and still use the longer lower section from the estate one.

Yeh its normal but not correct. They didnt fit them from the factory... and it causes the seatbelt mounting point to rust and be unsafe.
