Lotus Elan 1962-1974 Ultimate Portfolio by R.M. Clarke Pdf

The Elan was built on a backbone-type chassis, to which was added a GRP body shell, which was strong enough to pass the tests demanded by the new US regulations in 1968. It had disc brakes all-round and the famous 1558cc twin-cam Lotus engine in various states of tune. The original S1 introduced in 1962 lasted until 1964. The S2 had bigger front brakes and centre-lock wheels. The S3 from 1966 had electric windows and a close-ration gearbox option. This series also brought the SE model with more power. The S4 came in 1968 with wider wheel arches and the 128bhp Sprint came in 1971. This is a book of contemporary road and comparison tests, technical and specification data, new model introductions, driver' s impressions, racing, history. Models covered include:- Series 1, 2, 3, 4 & S4 Sprint, Plus2, Plus 2S.

BMW E30 - 3 Series Restoration Bible by Brendan Purcell Pdf

It is amazing to think that time has passed by and that the second BMW "3 Series" has achieved such status that it warrants this special book on its 21st anniversary. Maybe it is due to the sheer longevity of its design, its ability to satisfy the keen driver or its iconic status - but, whatever it is, there is no doubt that the E30 is one car from the past that will stay with us into the future. It is a pending classic and prices for well kept models have started to escalate; furthermore, there is a core of well cared for cars out there requiring basic attention by their dedicated owners. As a result, there has never been a better time for a book of this sort. By focusing on the common faults which crop up repeatedly and by giving detailed, simple instructions regarding repairs, this book will be uniquely invaluable for owners who wish to try their hand at their own maintenance, especially those who may previously have been prevented from doing so by a lack of technical know-how or specific knowledge.

Ferrari 308 & Mondial Ultimate Portfolio 1974-1985 by Anonim Pdf

The 308 GT4 was a replacement for the original 246 series Dino. It wore the Dino badges and it shared the 246's transverse mid-engined layout. It was a 2+2 rather than an uncompromising two seater, and it broke new ground in having a body styled by Bertone. Sales were steady but not spectacular. The Dino badging was dropped in May 1976 and production began to trail off during 1978 - the last one was built in January 1980. The Mondial didn't fare very well - it was a heavier car and a disappointment to Ferrari fans and only survived until 1982. However, the Mondial Quattravalvole showed that Modena had got the formula right this time and when a gorgeous cabriolet version joined the original coupe in 1984, sales practically doubled overnight. There are plenty of Ferrari enthusiasts who number the models in this book among their most coveted cars, and they will find plenty to feed their passion on its pages.
