Think that's a good thing to do and will have a look under our R53 when the weather gets betterOriginally Posted by c9aan
The cars in front are New MINI Scotland
Chassis-wise they seem very resistant to rust. Where they can go is the tailgate, rear quarter panels, and the sills under the door rubbers
Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs
I think all the R53's oil leaks possibly help to keep the underside free from rust ;-)

And the space in behind the rear of the sill in front of the rear wheels
The joins of the panels are not protected and can rust out
its a little easier for us as we underseal cars for a living , will take a look at the r56 next
I bought a lot of dinitrol underseal and cavity wax to do mine but haven't started yet, I'm planning to drop the tank and replace my battery box before I do it all
If you need any advice just ask , main watch out is when removing the front arch liners make sure you mask off the bonnet area and bonnet struts
