A series of owners workshop manuals for about every car sold in the UK.

I think of all of us only "Thad E Ginathom" will appreciate the full impact these manuals had.

The manuals tapered off after a while as cars became more electronic. They were useful for small jobs. Only thing annoying was that half the time, it stated reassembly is the reverse of disassembly.

Additionally, it covered easier jobs, stuff like removing airbags, it would not cover for liability reasons.
