Driving on the flats means even with a very corroded nut/bolt there's usually enough purchase to get things moving. I have a set at 1mm increments from 10mm to 22mm so one is bound to fit even if the head has wasted down but they're standard length. Absolutely invaluable especially with an older car.
I'll be leaving penetrating oil et-al to try and do its stuff for a few days.
I'm eyeing up some new subframe mountings with the integral bushing on ebay, just needing to get confirmation from members on another automotive site that they are compatible as there seems to have been a detail design change around 1990.
