Haynes Manual or equivilant

Hi All,

With my previous cars I've also got myself a Haynes manual so that I can look up various things like the safest way to take of trim or wiring diagrams etc...

However I cannot find anything for an F30 2103....does one or an equivilant actually exist?

Jason

It's too early for them, the very earliest F30's are only just out of warranty, and most of them are sold AUC so will have another one year warranty. There isn't even one for the F10 yet and it came out 3 years earlier.

I know this is of absolutely no help, but I just bought the Haynes manual for the Lockheed SR-71.... And a book documenting the Bell X-15 history and flights...

Those of us of a certain age will now be salivating...

I've never really rated any Haynes Manual.

Keep an eye out on eBay for electronic format of genuine workshop manual or go with a Bentley manual. US based but much better than Haynes in my experience.

I appreciate that but don't always get replies to what I had hoped have been simple questions, plus I always like to research and look things up.

Thanks for this I'll look out for sure for an electronic version 😃

Unfortunately not, but I have seen quite a few of the surviving airframes now... Cold war aviation is a particular interest of mine...

Best plane I have nosed around recently was B-52b 00008 "balls eight" which (as some of you may know) was one of the NASA motherships that flew specialist vehicles (such as Bell X-15) on the test missions... Awesome...
