My daughter's old Mundano comprehensively failed its MOT last week so Daddy was suckered into buying her an old banger to "get by" for a short while, so when I stumbled over a Vectra on a 'P' plate that drove very well but had a few cosmetic 'issues' it seemed to fit the bill.
One problemette that spoils an otherwise quite clean vehicle is the trim on each side of the windscreen. The top end of the strip (on both sides of the vehicle) is bulging and distorted with rusty metal showing underneath. I'm unclear whether there is a body seam here which is covered by the plastic strip, or whether the metal is part of the trim.
Essentially, I'm looking for advice on how to deal with this at minimal cost because the car will probably be sent to the scrapper's at the end of the year anyway. Looking for help from Mr Haynes in his fine book on the subject, all I can find on replacing the windscreen (which I presumed would explain how to remove and replace the trim) is that replacing a windscreen is a specialist job beyond the capability of a DIY-er.
Two pictures to illustrate what I'm trying to describe maye be found here
