Is this a club sale? I doubt it! Logo theft?
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ROVER-75-M...item3f0e1c6b44
Using the club logo at the bottom, no link to the site so I guess its stolen. |

I believe the photo of Mike’s car on the listing is owned by the club too.

Lets make this absolutely clear, the club does not sell or condone the sale of The MG Rover electronic workshop manual also known as RAVE.
The copyright for the said work is owned by xpart, and for an ebay seller to reproduce the club's logo in this way is totally unacceptable. This ebay listing has absolutely nothing to do with the Owners Club and we will indeed being having words. |

Is there any way of obtaining a legal copy of this disk - perhaps from XPart ?
It seems a shame that we cannot access such a major source of information for our cars. I wonder if XPart might licence the disk to the club - so the club could supply legal copies to members only ? Given the fact that the disk is so easily available to the unscrupulous, I do not see what XPart would have to loose from such an arrangement. Just a thought

The ebay seller is obviously someone from the club, how many club members live in Essex......
