Thread: Door Rust

It depends on if you can do some or all the work yourself. Paying to get it done could be costly, and remember that what you can see may be just the start of it. You could end up chasing your tail with something like this. If the panels are starting to rust, then whats the floor or chassis look like? Has it been near or on the beach all its life? If you have your heart set on it, take it to a panel beater for an honest opinion...

G'day jimmy_f

If this vehicle is under 10 years old, then I would suspect beach work and or a salt water dunking, I would strongly suggest that you get a Landrover expert to look at it, as there could be chassis or suspension rust under that nice shiney black paintwork


cheers

thanks fellas, i wont get time to get a landrover specialist to look at it as the bloke will sell it. thanks anyway

the panels should be aluminium so that means its worse than standard
metal corrosion, better to let it be someone else problem than jump into
a bargain that isnt a bargain once the repairs are all done etc...

if its bad at the aluminium, it'll be terrible elsewhere.
