Good afternoon all This has probably been noticed by most but I only found out recently theres a bit of a print error in the car handbooks. It seems to have been made since they combined the handbook for all the models, and concerns the engine oil quatity. Please use the dipstick and not rely on the handbook cause especially in the Sigma case you will seriously damage your engine. The book states 5.75L if I remember correctly but only requires 3.75L. OOOOPPPS Cheers Gaz

I suspect the handbooks are the last thing to be refered to. Took delivery yesterday of a new Roadster. If the handbook is to be believed everything about the classic range is the same except engine size. Dimensions are incorrect for sure.

Last service at the Factory would confirm they don't read the handbook.Checked the dipstick the next morning and it was dry! Panic over, the receipt showed they charged for one litre less than the book says it needs.Topped up and sorted. I did phone but there was considerable confusion about how much to put in. It was even suggested that I had now over filled it. Settled for correct reading on dip stick!
