I have just purchased a '04 Land Rover Discovery 2 which I totally love, the 1st problem I want to fix is the door tops which have some surface rust on. Is this a common problem and what is the best way to fix or do I need to buy new door tops.

Thanks in advance

Sand them back to bare metal use etch primer then primer then satin black and you should not have that problem again

If they are like the Disco1, the door tops are removable.

It's a Land Rover mate, a bit of surface rust is the least of your problems,
