RUST NEVER DIES.
April 08, 2017, 03:32:34 PM
I have been checking our 1998 Espace before the MoT and much to my surprise I found a rusty spot in the chassis behind the right front wheel. A closer investigation proved that no metal was loft only rust and dirt. As you can see a new patch have been made.
Conclusion:Eeven galvanized cars like the Espace and the Murena can be attacked by rust as time goes by, so a traditional rust protection with Tectyl will be a good idea.

 I have some in the front left out rigger on our 1990 which is easy to fix seeing as how we are now having to do a lot more work since the flood in August 2016.
