As per our conversation Steve, this book isn't up to much, you can see it on the Technical section anyway.

The illustrated parts catalog from the US is very good, if doing a full restoration. Although SNG have obviously entered into an agreement with the author/publisher as all their S2 diagrams had been taken from this publication

The manual sold by XKEbooks is absolutely superb and contains unique drawings and photos. Not cheap at $195 but essential for any S2 owners aspiring to do work on their cars and do it correctly. Check out the sample pages on their web site: http://www.xkebooks.com/ I believe SNGB have bought the rights to use the drawings in the on-line and hard-copy parts catalogue. I only wish someone would do the same for the S1! The book was an S2 owner commissioned project hence the cost, before anyone starts complaining.

I can endorse this book. It has been and still is a critically important resource for my ongoing restoration. I have gotten my moneys worth already.
