Tamora? Check your roof bolts.
Discussion
Heading down to London last night. Pootled along waiting for the oil to warm up. Put my foot down as I got onto the motorway only for the roof to start to lift off. :-0.
Pulled off at the next junction to check thing over to find that the bolts on both side hinges of the rear folding section had come loose. Looks like every time the rear section folds up and down the bolts are working back and forth. There's a washer thing that the bolt goes through that looks like it is supposed to slip as the hinge moves but it isn't having the desired effect. Anyone else had this, if so any fixes/mods, other than regular checking and tightening?

All nice and tight. Forgot to push the roof stays in place once, thankfully was just pullingoff the drive when the roof fell in and smacked me & Lisa on the head!Pulled off at the next junction to check thing over to find that the bolts on both side hinges of the rear folding section had come loose.
