Sold my XJS & XJ8 and bought an XK8...
We all know about the aluminium corrosion issues with our cars, but other cars suffer corrosion too, and it can be a lot worse.
Today I went to a Mazda dealer in Stoke-on-Trent to look at the MX5s (US=Miata), they had in. A very nice sports car, and they have a brilliant reputation in the UK for reliability. However, a detailed check revealed serious rear wheel arch corrosion was starting around the lip. Attention would be needed very soon to stop it creeping ever onward.
This was a 2004 car on 42k miles.
