No squeaks for me

Hard top has been on a week and a half now I was a victim of circumstance - still it has rained every day since I put it on so I don't feel too bad

A very timely request , stuck my HT on before going on holiday , got back today jumped in her and its unbearable just going 5 miles .

I tried letting off the levers and driving for a while then doing them up again , this seemed to make a big difference , I suggest the HT deforms slightly during storage .

Mine went on last weekend. Why? - because I can. I just fancied a change and think it looks stunning. No squeaks though. It had been stored on its stand since I picked the car up on 1st June.

Strange thing is, I (okay, the car) seem to be getting even more admiring looks than with the top down.

I've had 2 winters and no squeeks.

But I suppose it'll start now I've said that.
