Just had swmbo's 53 p!ate rust out at the sills so we're looking for a replacement. The problem is that it suited her very well, was utterly reliable and they're cheap as chips* and fairly common near us.

Hence the question... I'm looking at the last of that generation 57 plate.

(*probably because they rust. boxedin)

You'd hope they fixed it for the next generation, but as they were sorting them under warranty did they improve the later ones of that gen?

Cheers, we bought it - a 57 plate with no rust at all. We'll see how long it lasts.
