i've seen it in the following locations, under side window, on the door, in the door sill (under the door), on the lip of the rear guards, around windscreen and back window (often a sign the windscreen has been removed as the paint will get scratched when taking it out).

Have rust in the boot around where the spare tyre is located in, due to water leaking into the boot from the tail light area & then collecting itself around that area.

Using CRC spray I managed to remove most of the rust.

I had major rust in my boot from leaky taillights. Fixed the lights (I think). Rust was a pain and there was more than I thought. Went right through in some areas. All fixed now. Sanded out, patched up and repainted.

Still have some minor rust elsewhere. Hopefully no more that I don't know about.

Some down where the A pillars meet the fenders and go under. A bit in each rear wheel well, right above the wheels. Probably from shit being thrown up and wearing the paint.

i've got a bubble on my passenger door, just above the crease. size of a 10c piece. for some reason there is one single small strip of sound deadening mat stuck on the inside of the door. obviously when it rains, this mat holds water, and it's caused the rust bubble. very annoyed.
