Haynes manuals??

Old Blue · 06-05-2008, 21:54

I've done a search and nothing relevant has come up.

The latest Haynes manual covers up to 2004 - '04, I have a '54 reg VRS estate.

Emailed Haynes, they replied they don't one and nothing in the pipeline for 12 / 18 months unless a lot of owners ask for one!!

So I am up the proverbial creek.

Anyone any ideas on a close match or???

If you have the mk1 vrs just get the 04 haynes manual, the car hasn't changed.

It must be a Mk1 as it's a Sept 04 registration unless there was a facelift one around that time before the Mk2 came out.

Trouble is I don't want to splash the cash to find it's a no no!

Those wheels look huge, I thought vRS estates had little peasant spec 16's!?

Yes i had a MK I and that manual covers it as well as the haynes do these days.

I'd also suggest that the Haynes dates are based on the main production change-over in Czeckia.
