Do you break very hard often and get red hot break dust on the alloys? Puma 110 - gone
Series III 1973 - going strong

I'm in the same boat as you Grockle: Mrs 110SEB drives the Tank more than me and generally drives smoothly! There are no pit marks on our alloys. We cannot be accused of cleaning them religiously either.

Perhaps the pitting might be caused by a bad batch of alloys being vulnerable? I think a call to the dealers would be in order.
