Hello all - another new member!

Big hello to all...
Total newbie here, just 2 days into owning a Landy and the insurance is sorted so should be able to take it out for a full ride at the weekend.
Series 2A, J-reg 1971, petrol, SWB, split windscreen, 3 door hard top... mainly blue with white roof.
Have always wanted one so feeling but also a bit in case I'm not up to the task of being an owner of such a vehicle. Any help and advice from more experienced owners will be welcome so apologies in advance if questions asked seem daft! For a kick-off... what's the best manual to get for a novice - Haynes or other?
Thanks all!

Welcome, Get yourself the official LR green workshop manual, it will be your best ever purchase. There is one on Fleabay at the moment, I paid a fiver for mine, bargain, but I have seen them for £40 if LR parts shops.
Give me a shout if you fancy doing some lanes or pay and play days.

Thanks for the advice - have put in a bid on the eBay manuals and also another "non-Haynes" that's on there by Castrol. Are there any useful Internet resources that you're aware of?

Try www.series2club.co.uk for techy stuff or the Forum. Paddocks are probably the best for parts.

Found THE manual on fleabay:
