Book Reviews of VW Beetle & Karmann Ghia 1954 through 1979 All Models (Hayne's Repair Manual)

Book Review: competent manual
Summary: 3 Stars

Over the last ten years or so Haynes manuals have steadily gotten more and more generic and unfortunately useless, with that comment in mind this particular manual on the beetle scores as above average. It still has a few weak areas but the other reviewers covered them well enough.
