My driver's front door has some very small bubbles on at bottom too. Also have a replacement but turns out it's nighthawk black which is annoying. Otherwise shell is mint no rust at all in the usual places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will it make painting it easier than another random colour? Good to have found a clean one though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Weird looking at mgs. Rarely see one with bad arches. Better paint maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gel Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Once you cut out Ricky rust you'll have a very solid car well worth attention and spoiling.....it's great to see cars being repaired properly 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still need to get the welding arranged, and it's mot time in a few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better paint maybe The guy who works on my car used to work at honda, and his mate has a body shop, but he used to work at honda as well. He was telling me once that the m's had a recall because they didn't have enough rust protection in them. Apparently they pumped loads of waxoil into the rear arches. Maybe MG didn't make the same mistake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_broon Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 This is getting more complicated, looks like it's going to be welding before fuel tank and pipes due to the fact that the tank will have to come back out for the welding anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
