Bentley Manual - is it worth it for our MkIIs?

**anarchycamp** · 15-08-2008, 04:15 PM

This could possibly go in the Manuals area but thought id get a better response here.

I have the Haynes Manuals, is it worth getting a Bentley considering they focus on US spec cars? Are there any better options?

Cheers,

Simon

A Bentley manual is one of the best companions you can have if you are serious. They have a lot of good and most importantly, correct information. They are the best workshop manual available.

Cough up the bucks and buy one if you are going to do more than oil changes to your car.

yea i have a mate who used a haynes for his mk1. every bloody instruction was frought with missed steps and we had a few frustrating times trying to interpret the sometimes vague descriptions.
I had a bentley with my E30, and use my current one for mk2 golf all the time. Its the shiz!

The wiring diagrams are especially better.
