Is there any of those M100 ‘Workshop Manuals on CD’, to avoid or recommend?
Thank you
Ray

I'd recommend looking just below the big LEC logo on this page and avoid anything else!!!

Thank you Neil, that’s the first time I’ve seen that section.
Has anybody bought a workshop manual on CD and found them to be any good? What about the one described as “Lotus Elan M100 Factory Repair Manual” on Ebay. I’m hoping for the equivalent of an Haynes Manual.

...and that is EXACTLY what you should steer clear of because it's just the all of the above put on CD.
These manuals are the best you'll find.

Also, you'll probably find that what they're actually offering is just the 'parts manual' not the 'workshop repair' manual - and then it'll be for the LHD Euro model.
As Neil says, there's no need to pay for someone to rip you off.

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it
