I don't want to be asking questions here on the forums that could be answered by simply referring to a good repair manual.

I'm looking to purchase a hardcover Bentley manual and I'm a bit confused by the offerings after seeing one seller (The Bus Depot, $99.95 + $17.69 shipping) offering a 1200 page manual:http://www.busdepot.com/v267and virtually every other seller offering a 918 page manual for as low as $91.42 with free shipping:https://wordery.com/volkeswagen-transporter-type-2...gLv7vD_BwE

What's the real difference besides the number of pages? I'm guessing the 1200 page manual would be somewhat more comprehensive than the 918 page one.

It seems odd that only one seller has the 1200 page version available, any helpful input would be appreciated.

Thanks, Bart

They are the same manual. Someone just slipped up typing in the info in both cases.

Here is the Bentley company web page about the manual:
