I have just become the proud owner of a 1998 9-5SE 2.3 The thing is, is that the previous owner didnt have the handbook, so i am asking where the best place to source one is, here in the UK. I see a 2000 model year on Ebay, but, how different in terms of changes made between the 2 years i know not. Do the main dealers stock them, for instance? Also, it only came with one key/blipper, but i guess they are horrendously expensive for what they are, so any clues as to (UK) cost would also be appreciated One more thing............. before i collected the car, i asked the seller to top it up with petrol, which he did..........with 97 octane !!!! As he was a foriegner and difficult to understand, i didnt ask him if it NEEDED the much higher priced fuel. Do i have to use it exclusively, or can i get away with one top-up of the super unleaded, followed by a top-up using "normal" unleaded? TIA T-L
