Are there (2) E30 Bentley manuals, or only one?
« on: February 27, 2008, 08:38:05 AM »
Are there (2) versions of the E30 Bentley Shop Manual, or only 1?  I thought I had seen (2) different versions (different cover colors) for the E30 Bentley while perusing different sites and also auction sites...  now I cannot find the same pics I had seen (should've book marked them)...

Can someone clarify?  Was there an older version or a revised edition?

The only E30 version I've seen has a red cover.  The E36 manual has a silver cover.  You need both.

What's really funny is that they've updated the cover... with a pic of a 318ic, a model not specifically covered by the manual... I love it!!

^^^ Umm, 1991 325ic on the cover.  Actually doesn't matter from the side -- they look the same.
