This one's mint, might see if the local copy shop will be willing to replicate it for me so I don't ruin the origional. its fantastic, the diagrams outlining all the oil ways for the auto box are fantastic...

That looks like an early to mid '70's factory manual. The turn up on Ebay all the time in varying states of use. Yours looks in good nick and is worth preserving.

Well if you want one that much buy one! They are in print, the Rover one is best for most models as it has all the updates but there are also older BMC and Leyland ones available. Or you can buy a disc from BMH with all the different old factory manuals on.
