any views, Good, bad, indifferent? I looked at a 2 year old manual vehicle today which I have seen at a good price. Dealer did say it hadn't been prepped for sale but I was concerned to see extensive surface rust spots on the leading edge of the roof above
the windscreen. Anyone else experienced that?

    The dealer said it has not been prepared for sale you are lucky if it had been prepared you may not have seen the rust spots, if you are concerned about what you have seen take a tip walk away. Sorry to have to say this.

    I am more than happy to walk away, simply wanted to know if anyone could help with some info that suggests it might be covered by the Hyundai Warranty? If the latter I would risk it, if not I won't! Have tried a Google search but nothing came up.

    Extensive rust spots on the roof when only 2 years old is bad news and shouldn't be. I wouldn't trust the car, are there other defects? Definitely, walk away.

    Common remark from a dealer "it hasn't been prepped yet" if it hasn't been prepped why is it on the forecourt
