Have been looking around at cars the last few weeks and have seriously looked at two corolla versos. Both had rust underneath - first one I saw with a mechanic had a lot of surface rust underneath and on the rear axle, while today the Verso had surface rust too underneath, on both sides of the car. No holes today for the Verso and it passed the NCT just last month.

So my question - how much rust is too much on a used car? Am aiming for a 10 year car so don't know if I should expect some rust.
