my 2001 merc was like that - I had both front wheel arches done - firstly before pickup by the merc dealer which was a poor job, and then 1.5 years later by an independent before I sold it as the bubbles had returned. he suggested to get rid of it and get a much later merc if I like that sort of thing.

A possible future:
The car is a 2007, and apparently they're galvanised post 2004, so I think what we're looking at in the arches is a previous poor repair with the rust coming through from behind the paint.
