hi mate and welcome to the OOF Thumbs Up!

great car, things to check tho, timing kit - should be done every 40K
engine breathers and cam cover gaskets, if leaking the oil collects in the spark plug wells,
all of this and more you can find how to , here

enjoy Smiley

Greetings  Smiley

Haynes manuals can be obtained for about £10 either off Ebay or from Amazon.co.uk. However the "How to" guides in the maintenance section are excellent and are actually performed on real cars, not the brand new examples in a Haynes.
