Sad news, but the reality is that most modern cars are mostly not really repairable by the average owner. Even finding basic info about replacing something like a headlamp bulb is ... "not forthcoming".
Now if you'd like to see a real "solid state" vehicle get rebuilt, check out Geoffrey Croker's 1978 Series 3 Land Rover Restoration:

I think there's even mention of the Haynes Manual in there.
- HeyLaughingBoy 6y agoI used to have an '87 Toyota 4x4 pickup that I did all the modifications and maintenance on. Easy vehicle to work on, extremely well-built. I'd go so far as to say it was ridiculously over built for a half-ton mini pickup. I also have a Nissan 350Z. Step 1 in replacing a headlamp bulb is either "remove wheel" or "remove front bumper," I forget which, but they both have to come off in order to change a fricking light bulb!
- lsllc 6y agoYeah, I have had the same experience on my current vehicle. Almost impossible to get to the headlight bulb compartment without removing the front wheel to get to the access panel.
