My 1999 1.0e has rust blebs all along the drivers side guttering ,took it to my local dealers (Newbolds,mansfield) last week and its going in today to be done FOC and i'm getting a courtesy car too! I went in expecting to have a long debate with someone so i prepared myself with every bit of info i could find to back my claim up but found it unessasary as the chap was sound with it all. Its got to be worth going to the dealers as in most cases i dont think they have any reason to refuse you.
