dave.vitesse Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 Well you have to consider the age of some of the owners. In my case I ran Triumphs all the year round since 1965 until recently and must have done many 100k miles in that trime. But age is starting to catch up, hence reducing the mileage. There are a number of owners in the same situation. Mind you I wouldn't mind another 13/60 Herald Saloon as a run about! Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 Whats polish ???

Anglefire Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 Leather off? Don’t think I’ve even done that to any of my cars in 35+ years of motoring. They get washed once a year if they need it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johny Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Looks like normal vapour on a cold day especially as there appears to be a gap between the end of the pipe and the plume which I wouldnt expect if it was smoke.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its condensation, cold day and cold engine. The engine uses half a pint in 4k miles. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
