I'm pretty sure the 146 has a galvanized body, so that could be why.Nothing really to speak of here on a 2000 car.or rustfree

Possibly - or are the rusty bits bolt-on stuff like the battery tray? SWMBO's '95 Punto has gone a bit like that.There is the odd scab here & there under the bonnet (not on the bonnet itself) - I wonder whether battery acid or the likes has leaked to cause that because it's weird it would only rust there.

That's not to say it doesn't need anything spent on it, I'm just holding off because the car still drives fine, just some niggles i.e. sensor(s) prob needs replacing so the revs stop rising & falling at idle, the variator might need replacing but I'm only guessing, needs a headlight bulb, new wipers, oh & after I struck that pheasant I need a new offside front foglight, the holding panel & a bit of paint on the bumper.
Apart from that everything's dandy.
