Haynes manual
Wanderer:
I hope they've got a good set of guidelines printed in it.
The last thing we need are loads of people going out in large groups and/or overusing the lanes listed or ignoring TRO's.

I agree 100%. Should have my copy on Friday. So I'll give you a run down on it then. It is hard to imagine what they are publishing really, given the rapidly changing nature of the subject. Still, it will be interesting if nothing else.
If it turns out to be OK. The offer will still stand. I will just have to add them to my routine orders from Haynes. On that basis, if anyone wants any Haynes publication, just let me know and I will tack it on to my next stock order. All I need is to show a teeny weeny profit on the sale to satisfy my business partner :lol:
Wanderer:
From what I have heard it is lanes previously covered in LRO. It appears to have been released in Jan 2004 but I'm surprised we've not heard of it before.
If it's like any other Hayne manuals you've got more chance of being bit by a strawberry than it having anything like the definative maps.

When I owned a 2CV (OK, stop laughing! It was a great car) one of the specialists suggested the best thing to do with a Haynes manual in winter was to set fire to it in your garage and warm your hands!
In their defence, the reprinted and updated books are actually quite good. It's the old versions that leave 'just a little' to be desired. One cop out in the Mini manual is the gearbox. It used to say with auto boxes to take it to a specialist. It has now ditched all info on manual boxes and says the same.

Incidentally Ed, have you ever been bitten by a strawberry to be qualified in comparing it??? :lol: :lol:
