Best to remove the whole stuff-up in one piece if you have the space and the kit to do it. I've just had mine done over at Retro Lifestyle in Brighouse. https://www.facebook.com/MgLifestyleukLtd

Give Chris a ring and have a chat. I'm sure he will give you a few pointers.

There is a much quicker and cheaper "fix" which involves replacing the bottom transverse tube only.
this is done in situ and obviates the need to take out the complete sub frame
Brian aka "scooter" can sell you a kit for doing this
There is a wealth of info about this on the forum

Thanks for the advice and the welcome message. The problem for me is that unless and until I get the car I can't be a full member so I don't have access to the "wealth of information" or the shop.

The link to the place in Brighouse is interesting and they aren't too far from here. However I generally like to do all work on my cars myself.

I've seen the repair with just welding in the tube, but I'd like to take the opportunity to overhaul the whole back end so I may as well take the whole thing out. I'll let you all know what happens!

6KH - Are you the fella that collared me in Morrsions carpark the other week, to talk 260s?

Yes - it's all your fault!
