Is that that actual BMW parts catalouge? If so it's a lot nicer to use than ePER.

Yes it does.

But the useful diagrams are in eLEARN, the online workshop manual, which isn't publicly available. Also copies of owners manuals are found in eLUM.

It is similar, but it isn't quite the same (or as detailed) as BMW TIS (the actual product used in the dealerships). Realoem is basically just the images ripped from TIS and put on the web.

I use realoem from time to time, when I'm not at a machine with TIS (like my laptop), but realoem doesn't go into detail about procedures, fault-finding, etc etc.

I have a Haynes manual which covers the Fiesta/1.25 Zetec going spare if you want it for some beer tokens and postage?

Can confirm which one it is exactly later.
