If the bolt is starting to round, belt a cheap 6 point 16mm socket onto the bolt with a mash hammer, and use a breaker bar without an extension and it will undo.
You will never manage to drill the head off the bolt successfully I suspect

Thanks for all your advice.
Can't take the car for a spin because it has no MOT and the front spring is broken and resting on the tyre
I have a set of these coming soon.
