I'm going to get a worskshop manual for my VXII wagon. Is a Gregory's ($42) OK or is there something better around and what does it cost.
The Gregory's is a good manual but you should be able to get it for around $30. I got mine for about $30 from supercheap.
I use the Gregories and have found it to be ok.
Doesn't go into full detail all the time but for general guidelines its good.
Stoke my ego, click the scales!!!
Stoke it!!!!
LOVE IT!!!!!
DO NOT BUY the Ellery's.. Worst thing you could possibly do..
It only covers specific maintenance items.. Gregory's is much better..
I have both, I just got the Ellery's.. I wanna return it..
I agree DO NOT BUY the Ellery's.. Worst thing you could possibly do..
Wiring diagrams are lousy heap of poop!
I complained to the publisher and their response was
"We plan to improve that part in the future when time allows, but in the meantime please still buy our products"
NO WAY ! Once bitten twice shy!
Thanks for the advice, especially for the info aout the supacheap price.
What about the Haynes one?
Gregorys & Haynes = same companyOriginally Posted by VXIIwagdf
I find gregorys explain the most common things in english I can at least understand.
Would definately recommend it. I'm just glad I didn't buy the Ellery's after all!!!
We've got the haynes, its pretty good. But if you need to know something not covered in it the holden workshop manuals are awesome most public libraries have them since they are too damn expensive for most to buy.
The Ellery's manual is full of errors as well. Spelling errors and typos aren't a big deal until you're told to do something to within X mm and you can't trust the book to be rightOriginally Posted by Shounak
