Book Review: Make this Your First Choice!
Summary: 4 Stars
I have been working on my vehicles since 1968 as a teenager. I have owned six or eight different service manuals for various different cars and motorcycles in that time. Some have been excellent (1972 VW Type II shop manual) and others had just enough information in them to change a light bulb or get you into trouble (Chilton Volvo 1993 960). I also have the 1983 Chevy shop manual for the Blazer which is an automotive tome if I ever saw one.
I just bought the Bentley 240 manual and while it is not as detailed as the Volvo shop manual (which is actually a series of books, each covering one specific system), for the cost it is an excellent investment for anyone working on their own car. It is well laid out and fairly easy to find what you need.
I also have the Haynes 240 manual (Haynes 97020- available for as little as $19 shipped if you shop around). it makes an excellent companion to the Bentley, but if I had to recommend one over the other, the Bentley is the one to get.
I rated it as 4 stars becasue it is not as complete as the factory information, but for the home mechanic, it is a 5!
Book Review: Very useful guide for the technically interested Volvo owner
Summary: 4 Stars
The Volvo 240 Service Manual covering Volvos from 1983 to 1993 can be recommended without much reservation. The book is loaded with detailed information, illustrations and technical tips. To use this manual to repair your old 240 is both interesting and economically rewarding.Book Review: very thorough.

Seems to cover just about everything. I would recommended getting the Haynes repair manual as well for other fixing smaller items like the seat belts which this book does not coverBook Review: Detailed DIY book
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the third Bentley service manual I've purchased within this year and I am happy with this one.The information can be used with volvo 740 and 940(The same engine and transmissions are used) My only complain is that the book does not cover AW70/71 transmission in detail.
Book Review: Learning and saving money too!
Summary: 4 Stars
Well of course first you have to spent some money to get the book, but that is soon forgotten as you start reading it and using it's content to take care of your car.(In casu a '92 245 2.3 POLAR).
