If you have a dedicated "indoor" copy, it'll stay decent looking, provided
you also have a grunge version in the garage. I've also started to photcopy
the "frequent flyer" pages, (or pages destined for grimy jobs, like the
shift linkage, clutch, etc.) and in some cases,  I've stuffed a spare copy
into the glovebox (eg, a shrunken version of the MkI's wiring diagram). I
like the book versions, but I'm a dinosaur.
