I didn't know there was a specific Stage 1 manual??? IS that true?
I've got the V8 Supplement, that's for engine rebuilds and the like. There must be a V8 owners handbook, telling you how to check the oil, where the difflock is etc. None of the standard Series 3 book applies to any of that.

There's a mention of the owners handbook on the Glencoyne site too, with pics.

So it does, well spotted :)

The Haynes manual has information about what oils need to be changed and how to do it for the V8's, but having a copy of the handbook would be great.

Wonder if the folks at Solihull might some stuffed into the back of some shed...

Pooks Motor Books in Leicestershire have some, do a search on ebay.co.uk for the seller "motoringmagpie".

I've just got one, but it's 164 pages and I don't have a scanner :oops:
