    Also check where the battery/batteries sit. Dunno about other vehicles, but my batteries are being held up by REALLY strong rust. The other spot is the bottom corners of your wheel arches. I had big problems at either end of the sills. I guess you're just gonna have to put your eyes into every nook and cranny of the body, because these things just love to rust whenever they can, but they're cunning machines. They really like to hide the rust aswell. So remember, when you're looking at the vehicle, 60% of its rust is where you can't see it. By taking the time to crawl up into every tiny little space and into every greasy hole, you will save yourself a LOT of heartache down the track. Good call by MQ MAD aswell on the water in front of the windscreen. I have the problem of the internal water feature.

    You must also bear in mind, that if you do decide to purchase this vehicle, you will become part of what's known in folklore as The High Order!!! This is an unofficial and unmarked group of people who possess something in their arsenal which actually makes you superhuman, and in this case, The MQ/MK Patrol. Once you have this in your possession, you instantly become more attractive, more successful, idolised.... basically you are just looked up to by all others. You see, everyone wants an MQ or an MK, but unfortunately most people know that it comes with the responsibility of having everyone thinking, "oh my god that guy/girl looks AMAZING in that MQ", or "This hill is far too hard to drive up, but wait, here's an MQ driver, he or she will make it up even without tyres bolted on!" You see, this responsibility is far too much for some people, so instead, they buy a GQ or a GU so they can still have some of the glory without having to be a god. (I have no life)

    Hope I could be of help.
