SLK230 rust on wheel arches

So was looking to buy a 2002 MB estate but I might give it a miss now!

You can find a number of previous posts on this topic from me. My W203 2001 is in for the third time in 1 year having the front edges of both rear wheel arches repaired at MB cost as I type. Car returns to me tomorrow.

Best of luck Mike maybe they will cure it this time but I doubt it,
there is only one way to do it the dcp way have spent time and research
on this and many MB's have be done using my technique and are still prooving it to be a success

Had rust bubbles on the wheel arch flanges on my SLK 230, not too bad on the fronts, but worse on the rears. I thought I would catch it early and get them done proffessionally and on the reccommendation of Peter of this forum, took the car to Vanleigh in West Molesey. They did a super job for the grand total of £600.00.
I can reccommend them if you are within a reasonable distance.
