Which Manual do you recommend

Haynes or Bentley ? I need to get something that will help me find my way around but I guess I do not need both.

 

Bentley is the better one, but I also have Haynes.

 

Get the Bentley one if you must choose, but I've got Bentley, Haynes, KYBA and John Muir's How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive.

 

Haynes is around in PDF format too, saw it for the first time last week.
I've got bentley and muir in hard copy

edit: here is mr haynes: http://www.chrisnet.webd.pl/oko/do_pobrania/vw_manual.pdf

 

Another vote for 'Keep your Volkswagen alive'. Got me going quicker than the Haynes when I wasn't online and the van wouldn't start.

 

Thanks for the input. Probably end up over time with all of them like BayBirmingham. Thanks to Scote for the link, this should get me going initially.
My van is a 77 US LHD Berlin (originally 2.0FI) with a 1600 Type 1. Was there much difference between the 1600 and the 2.0 apart from the engine and FI system ? The reason I ask is, will I just need the one manual for a 1600 ?
LHD v RHD will I assume just be a mirror image on where things are mostly.

 

Get the bentley manual

 

Real men don't read manuals/instructions

























we take out a lot of breakdown cover ;D

 

for your US import bentley over Haynes as it will be more specific but keep your VW alive is a better read if you're a beginner.

 

Karmsutra is the better option IMO

 

Haynes and Bentley here too.

Which with the link up there ^ and the one on this thread you too will have http://thelatebay.com/index.php?topic=299.0

 

bentley should cover the FI stuff

 

Definitely the Bentley, I have a host of the damn things. Bentley and Ratwell.com cover everything I have needed so far!

 

The one off Fawlty Towers.
