Hi, I am from the uK and we dont have these available as it seems like a USA thing only. (apart from if you want to import it at a large cost)

Is it a good reference manual?

I am coming to NY in May, will I be able to pick one up from there, roughly what price please?

Many thanks, Dave

Why not just buy the Bentley manual and have it shipped to you?

 

Haynes have one. Have not seen it yet so cannot recommend it personally

 

Why not check Amazon?

 

Thanks for the replies, appreciated. The issue is, that when I search for it to ship it to the UK, the prices vary so much, I am not sure what the base price of the manual is against the top up of the postage costs, as I said, I am happy to wait for my trip to NY providing there is somewhere I can pick it up from that has it is stock, or is that unlikely? Thanks, Dave

 

It is seriously a great book to have. Especially if you do a lot of your own work. It is helping me a lot with my turbo and upgrades right now.

 

For the 02 - 06 one its $97 new, ~ $82 used. 2nd Gen is $88 new and $82 used.
