Currently doing some rust removal whilst awaiting welding work on the front sills of my tourer. Managed to get the rear wheelarch liner off to check under there, fearing the worst. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the almost complete lack of rust compared to the inner part of the wheel arch, which has needed treatment followed by red oxide primer/hammerite and probably something thick and gooey to keep the water out! Unfortunately, the long metal cover that covers the fuel pipes inside the wheelarch crumbled in my hands so will have to find something else to protect them.
