Default What’s holding my fuel tank...

Apart from “Not much”😳, what’s holding up my fuel tank (diesel saloon).
Offside...
Near side..

Haven’t driven it in months, but someone wanted to buy it last weekend.
Only after I’d moved it and had a look to see if a rotten offside sill had decided to self heal 🙄, that I noticed the fuel tank straps had corroded.🥵
Needless to say I advised the prospective buyer that I’d remedy it prior to sale.

Parking brake cables and fuel pipework to include filler neck connections and less likely, electrical connections to pump ETC.
