655 Starline (1 Viewer)

New to the group. Previous LMC owner. Buying a 2007 Starline 655. Any advice on pitfalls or underbody corrosion issues? What to look for. Many thanks. Russ

My B525 2006 with the 2.7L is pretty good. Some corrosion on the exhaust so thinking I may replace with stainless at some stage but otherwise it's pretty good for its age. Mine has had extensions fitted to the mud flaps which probably helps. People have had problems with the garage floor rotting from wheel spray but mine is perfect.

Not with my new rear flaps I've just fitted, these are of a 4x4/Commercial type you can cut down to your desired size that work's for your van/moho

Looks good I may invest in some for my 655 line

Well worth it stops a lot of mud build up and keeps my waste pipe clean, saves keep cleaning it. Ebay approx £15 graphics off a trade pal foc then lacquered over to seal them.
As you probably spotted, fronts are genuine oe Fiat as like a snug fit (ocd) lol Although standard clamps only not enough for me, so I fitted extra self tappers with retainers behind, then painted holes and waxoyled to protect !
Also used double sided black tape between the outer edges to help fill the gap everone moans about
