Ok everyone,
This is quite large...almost 43MB, so my suggestion is right click on the link and select "Save Link As...." and download it rather than trying to open it in your browser.

I had trouble downloading this until I let it download in the browser and then saved to disc. Took about 20 minutes even with Broadband.

This is the British Version and not the American one but still very full of information for those who don't have this!

hey, thanks for the find! i think the reason it takes so long to download is that it is being pulled from across the pond :wink:

MIJ, thanks for the download information.
You really should move from "dialup" to cable :twisted:
At least they spell "colour" correctly :wink:

Haha...I have cable (fastest around) but still took a long time.
Like the previous poster said it might have been because the download was from far far away in another land, plus I did this on a Saturday when maybe traffic on the web was slower? Anyway, if you don't have this manual it's worth grabbing. I have the U.S. version but grabbed it anyway.

Hi MadeInJapan,

Thanks for digging this one up. While Haynes has it's deficiencies it's still handy to have as a reference manual (the more info one can get - the better).

The illustrations are far bigger on my screen than those in the actual manual and consequently I can now make out much more detail than I could when using the manual.

It's a pity Haynes, or some firm like them, don't produce a book that has coloured illustrations and produced either on CD or downloadable from the internet (at a cost).
There are only two types of car owners - those who own Volvos and those who wish they did.
