Another rust pre-purchase question.. (1 Viewer)

Looking at buying a 2014 200 series. Little concern with some of the rust I see but should I be?

Looks fine. Lower control arm bolts are likely seized just based on the rust and corrosion there, but outside of that (and the factory skid plates which will gather rust more easily) it looks like all surface rust. I wouldn't have any reservations. Wire wheel and some paint if you're concerned.

Awesome. Really appreciate the quick response.

Personally, that level of surface rust doesn't concern me much.

Looks ok. Just a bit of cleanup and treatment it’ll be fine.

Tires don’t match, with either model or tread depth. So plan on a set of new ones.

It looks like it’s been a while since the front skid plates were off, so it may need an oil change, etc.
