The dreaded R word appears in almost every thread, so this morning whilst washing my car I had a few thoughts:
1) Have there been any changes to production techniques and materials in recent years to give us hope that the future may be a bit brighter?
2) Is the degree of rust a factor of how the car is treated from new? Does it make a difference whether the car is kept garaged overnight or left out in the elements?
3) Wheel arches appear to suffer the most, presumably because of the inadequate design and fitting of the liners. Does regularly (weekly) cleaning inside the arch lips make a noticeable difference?
4) Is it worth getting the underside Waxoyled from new?
5) Are some models worse than others?
It'd be interesting to hear members' own experiences. The most meaningful results would be from those who've had their cars from new because then they can be certain of how the car has been cared for over its entire life.
