    Interesting, but I think we've seen bentley's around here 'somewhere' and it really does whoop the Haynes man's behind. There are, however, some good photos in the Haynes and the body stuff is OK.

    I have all three (Chiltons, Haynes, Bentleys) and can't remember the last I opened anything but Bentleys.

    Thanks for that,

    Dave M

    I think having all three really is best, even Bentley ain't perfect. Sometimes a second photo helps you get a real idea of what is going on.

    Thanks for taking the time to upload this.

    If it has **** or tires, you are going to have problems.

    I have a hardcopy of the Haynes manual, it's pretty good on the engine, steering and suspension but don't bother with the wiring diagrams - they look like they've been written for a Triumph Herald or a Lockheed Lightning, not an e34! The Bentley manual is miles better 'if you can find it!' ;-)

    Chiltons’s manuals suck. Haynes manuals are good if you own a Triumph Spitfire. Bently manuals are OK, however they really do have a lot of mistakes and omissions in the electrical area. What else is available?
