Why not just find and fix the leaks?
Tried that. Fitted a new felpro sump gasket and rear main seal. Didn't help, still leaks at the same place. I suspect it's the pan slightly bent, but it's a real pain to replace in situ. Did it when the engine was out last time.

what happens once the tray is full? Say you're driving down the road, a lot of oil under the rear wheels could be bad news!
Why not just get a drip tray like the one RK has up for sale. Whack it under the car jobs done!
The leak isn't that bad, but is doing a great job of staining the drive. The idea is that I would clean it out a couple of times a year as part of regular maintenance. There'd never be enough that it would spill out.
Did consider a drip tray, but don't really want to leave something like that out on the drive. Hence why I thought of bolting one to the bottom of the car.

Any suggestions on how to add some strengthening ribs?
pop rivet if you want easy joining. (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/wink.gif)
