High Jetter Posted July 3 Posted July 3 4 hours ago, Momentary Lapse Of Reason said: "Parts Cat" would like to point out the the Factory Workshop Manuals and the Factory Parts Books are available to download at various locations on the interwang Smithies of New Zealand is a particularly good library of LR materials John Richard Surplus (UK) loads of stuff you can access Emberton has links to some Series One Club produced material Have a read of the Instruction Manual, a fine example of a real Instruction Manual, rather than the modern Book of Disclaimers. I'm beginning to wonder why I've kept these for so many decades now... Momentary Lapse Of Reason 1

Ohdearme Posted July 5 Posted July 5 11 hours ago, Gompo said: All things considered, this looked stunning. Looks like the 2.5v6 - for my ruinous sins, I ran a VR-4 version (twin turbo v6) for a year driving 450 miles a week and changing the AYC diff oil every 4500 miles. In that time it shat a £1000 driveshaft and eventually an impossible to spruce/repair invecs-2 gearbox too. Awesome car, semi q car, 270bhp, a dash like a computer game, brakes like marshmallow and an ability to drift like I’ve never experienced before or since… Its a saved search on eBay for a reason… Gompo, EyesWeldedShut, Andrew353w and 4 others 7
