Mk6 rust.

[100 T280]

Judging by this '02 plater, the outlook isn't good is it.




...and there was much more too.

So that's 5 years old?? Has it been dipped in the sea??

[AndyG]

These MK6s will become worse than the MK5 as they are thinner

Here's another

Has it been dipped in the sea??

Might as well have been eh
Couldn't be much worse!

The worrying thing is, mine is going the same way too

[AndyG]

And I was always under the impression that it was only/mainly the white ones

Check out any mk6 (other than white), most of them aren't even sprayed properly on the lower part of the sills.

[AndyG]

[ and no I didn't test it

[sc_BK]

Mine's bad for it, getting worse aswell

I think Ford painted mine with poster paint....

[bigmastif]

both our mk6`s are rusting round the arches but ain't that bad but the door pillars inside were the black trim runs round are bad
the other van "boaby" is worse than "bessie" but the passenger pillar is horrific on "boaby" and with a little push with a screwdriver would push right thru in places
but think that is a luton thing as the body's dump more rain water on the pillars

[FredTransit]

I disagree about the luton thing bigmastif, it's like you are driving about under a permanant umbrella, most of the water on ours drips to halfway down the door and about a third of the windscreen.
