Being that the car is a Hundred, I'd suggest that you now take up the 
correct free play adjustment in the master cylinder pedal shaft which will 
bring your pedal travel up. There's a fine line between having it adjusted 
up correctly and having it too far up which, once the braking system warms 
up, can cause the brakes to expand slightly and drag. You may now have 
better braking than you've had for a long time with all the air removed and 
things working as they should.
