Can't tell from the photo but it does appear that they are only on the LHS.
Mine does not have them and I can never remember seeing this before.
Certainly the Parts Catalogue does not show any holes like this in the 'main floor' pressing.
I would have said these would have been fitted ex factory but since you have had the car since new...
Perhaps at dealer level?

I checked my car and the body of the car I scrapped, then checked one on the hoist at our local Triumph specialist, none had these bolts. It's my opinion that these were drilled and 'plugged' using body washers inside as described. Because the nuts are not 'captive' ,that is permanently attached to the panel, this seems to support my thoughts.......now the million dollar question, why would they have been drilled in a new car???? anyone's guess.

I have something similar in my RH footwell, It was to anchor the front matt to prevent it moving forward. But that does not fit with Roger's one owner vehicle.
