What exactly does it talk about, is it similar to the good old haynes manual?

Does it mention anything about fitting the later Twin-Cam Six's, or V8's, by any chance?

Either way, I've just bought one. At £12 posted to me, y'can't go wrong.

This book is written by Andy Everrit(Andyboy on the zone) need I say more? This should be compulsory reading for any E30 enthusiast.

I'm pretty sure you haven't, not in aarhus that is
I live in northsealand.
Btw you can see it on bmwe30.dk if you know the site.

I bought it as holiday reading last year, Quality book!

A few zoners appear in it's pages.

I really should buy this book, but as one of Andy's 'boys' I think I should get a discount

Ah, ok. I guess that it was another E30. Thanks for the link to the site, my Danish is not too good but I'll try anyway !!

got mine

Doh - still out of stock

Didn't even know this book existed! Fantastic!
everywhere is out of stock but there are 4 left at Amazon £14.99 with free postage

Just ordered 1 myself

From the original link, you can get to a site called abebooks.com. They have the restoration bible in stock, but delivery may take awhile seeing as it's a US site.

For those who are interested in buying, and don't mind waiting, here is the link: http://www.abebooks.co.uk/servlet/Searc ... ID=2687102 I ordered mine on the 17th and it still hasn't turned up! It should be here in the next day or so, hopefully.

Btw, I'm not affiliated with the author or these websites, just in case anyone was wondering.

Georgen ... need anything translating then just let me know!!
