Reviews
Use a workshop manualReview date: 2010-02-16 Rating: 2 out of 10It is what it does'nt have in it that is important. Little detail,lots of irrelevant information. Buy a landrover workshop manual,more expensive but very informative. Better than this rubbish.DisappointingReview date: 2009-12-06 Rating: 2 out of 10If you are sufficiently technically competent to consider undertaking a restoration this book does nothing for you. It is largely a recompilation of other publication. There are web sites such as Series2club that will be far more usefull!The Best Manual...Not on It's Own!Review date: 2002-09-05 Rating: 6 out of 10Haynes Manuals have a reputation for being incomplete. This is no exception!
The Project Vehicle is a Series 2A, and there is little Series 3 in the book, not surprising as the original was written around 1985! Series 3s were still new then!(There IS a Series 1 section though.)
What it IS is a manual that covers, if not in great depth, some of the jobs no other manual covers. Such as Chassis repair, outriggers and the rear crossmember. Fitting new seatbelts, free wheel hubs, and the fairey overdrive. Replacing body panels.
This should be read in conjunction with the official Repair Operations Manual, and the Land-Rover Parts book for your particular vehicle.
Also, try joining the Club for your vehicle. Such as The Series Three Owners Club.Nice pictures, but not much practical workshop useReview date: 2002-05-24 Rating: 4 out of 10We recently rebuilt a disassembled a 1949 Series One Land Rover, hoping this book would help us. Though the engine part is quite good, many other things are only covered in pictures without explanations or are simply an ode to Dunsfold. Electrics are not explained at all. There is not enough to cover each model and it takes more than 130 pages till the authors actually start writing about a real life project. Why they come up with things like 'free-wheeling hubs save fuel' without any figures to prove that remains their secret.
I'd rather buy the original workshop manual for the model you want to restore, which we did of course.
