Yes, I've had a look at those too. It looks like there is a huge hole, in a very bad place, that let's water into a metal tube, that has it's lowest point on the bottom corner with nowhere for it to escape. What a dumb idea!

But there again, it seems to last for the normal lifespan of the car. I've seen a lot of other car brands that are just full of visible rust at half the age of my Rover. Can't even imagine how badly they are rusted in the hidden area's.
