A method is provided for forming a structural element 200 for a vehicle. A plurality of thin-walled tubes 202, having internal surfaces 221 and external surfaces 222, are arranged into a cluster 203. Support is provided to internal surfaces 221 of thin-walled tubes 202, for example by providing a mandrel or a fluid, and a material 204 is overmoulded to at least a portion of external surfaces 222 of thin-walled tubes 202 to bond the cluster together. The longitudinal axes of tubes 202 may be parallel, or may be in two clusters in different orientations to each other. The materials of tubes 202 and overmoulding material 204 may be different, and tubes 202 may be of fibre-reinforced plastic,
