Don't forget all you need is some sticky back plastic and A4 Card!!

Or you could take tips from others and use a wire brush and paste tar on over the big rust blemishes!! Might help when pushing your car in and out the tin shed:razz:

It's rotten m8!

It's rotten m8!

Serious? i meant on the outside underneath.. Seen sooo many evos that were/are spotless paint work wise and inside.. But rusty as hell underneath..

 

[mart1983]

My car is one of the spotless evos you will find m8! Underneath is fine, I was crawling around under it before i brought it! The boot has only gone like that coz some water has got in from some where, more then likely condensation.Hench why I am stopping it now! But if you think it's rotten coz of the boot that's your view.. Lol
Simon can shread light on this!!!!!

In what way shape or form did i say your car/boot was rotten.. Please read my other reply and you will see this..

I was just saying and meaning soo many people pay attention to the surface/paintwork/go faster/interior/and shinny bling bits and totally forget about whats important with these rot box's The underneath.

So dont be reading my previous reply and reading into something that is not there

I am in no way being negative towards your post. Was just shocked when you said its rotten.. I did not know if you were being sarcastic as in rotten dirty or rotten(rusty etc)

 

[mart1983]

ok.

I'd be looking at the rear lights and boot seal for the water leak its not condensation,
Maybe even the rear screen if its been out
Good work by the way, keep on top

This has to be the post of the year FPMSL Love the way you posted this comment on this thread:awesome:

Martin i think laddo isn't after getting into your panties after all:shock: You know what the say never go down the same road twice:razz:

You may have to get in the boot with a torch, while your mate, (or mam) anyone will do,
Sprays the rear end with a hosepipe, usually works

Ant this may be a big problem for Martin as 1..He's such a fat head he won't fit inside his boot and 2 He normally has dead bodies in the boot and I now suspect the water inside his wheel well is from him washing out all the blood and gutts from the remains of the bodies he's deposed of!!
