The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

For Christmas, they gave me some Meguiar's Dark Wax - takes a bit of work (even in a slightly warm garage), but the sections I have done look stunning - "wet slick on glass" would be one way of putting it. I also spent a happy afternoon putting all the paperwork into clear wallets, one a year, in a nice folder (obsessive?)

Does more good to your car than leaving it in the garage fretting about salt.

That video has made me proper impatient to get mine on the road and finally have my first drive of a dolly on the open road!

I carried out some windscreen upright modifications.
Bit scary because it meant welding aluminium, which is a relatively new thing for me.

Was forced to put my wife's MG in my garage with my dolomite due to the weather so there is no room for me to tinker! I did try and complain but after 12 years of marriage I choose my battles very carefully!!

A leak.
A big one.
Bought some wonder-stuff from B&Q, plastered that over the suspect roof area, but it's still leaking, big time.
This isn't the time of year for this stuff.

This is a very sad tale and true in my house too . The wifes MX5 has to live in the garage no matter what................lucky its a double.

The lord said unto Moses "come forth", but he came fifth instead because he only had an MG

I'm without Dolomite and all I have to do with the Astra is put petrol in it (which isn't all that often these days) but the annual service is due so I'll be busy with that over the coming weekend.
