What?.... is this because instead of any information more complex than removing a bolt it just has blank pages bearing the legend 'Here Be Dragons'

it layout has changed dramatically from the original Workshop manual and it is no longer called as such. it has a bigger section for stuff that was covered in just a few pages. the index is crap need i go on?

As someone relying on it (mostly) it's fair to say it's lacking in detail...

Also hate the parts which say

'Your car may not have this' AFTER you have read through two paragraphs telling you how to remove it

How many versions of these are there? Just spotted a 1969-86 Manual.

I normally use my 1969-88 Manual, well thumbed, grease covered, pages glued back in, spine patched up, but it's seen me through many years & many Minis.
