that link may have been deleted or disabled for copyright reasons. Just do a google search for Bentley pdf and you'll turn something up.

I would recommend to buy a Bentley Repair Manual original.
Besides the fact thet it is a copyright issue I like to have the book in printed form with me when I repair the car and also we should support the publisher with buying original, otherwise they will not spend that much money anymore in the future to publish such books.

+1 I don't know why anyone would want to fudge with a laptop in the middle of doing a clutch job or removing the intake. I paid $30 for my hard copy on Amazon. If I knew how much I would use it i would have eagerly paid $80 or more.

I bought an Ipad, first thing on it was the manuals and parts catalogues. I can fast forward pages and don't have to get the pages dirty. The zoom is one of my favorite features. Books are good, but technology is changing the way we do things. Don't get me wrong, I have some books, but if its not in the manual, or not explained correctly, I just google on it or go to the forum. Best investment so far, too bad it can't read codes!

FYI, not all the torque values in the Benteley are correct. Water pump bolts won't take 22 nm without snapping off. Source: me.
