    Yes, Barry...but look at these selections carefully. It appears, as is the usual case, that there are supplements to that manual that you asked about. The first book names many things but may not have ALL the info about ALL the things it names. There are other full books that are dedicated to just one subject, etc. Look to see if someone has a full set...he may know what he is selling. Others may sell you one book saying that it is the manual for that car but he may not tell you...or know...that there are others that go into a set. This has happened to me in the past so you may have to do some investigating to find all you need. You really should have ALL the FACTORY manuals for your car. Forget about Haynes and Chilton...get factory only. You will be happy to have them in the future.

    Since you gave no link I would assume that those are the ones you would want. Email the seller and ask if this is a complete set (if he knows). I would like to see a link to that sale if you could do that.:yup:

    OK...it appears to me that there are some there that you do not need. I think all you need may be the.....

    Body, Chassis, Electrical

    Power Train

    Engine Emission Diagnosis

    The others are unnecessary or are not for your car. You may be able to get these individually for less mony. And you can be more selective as to the condition.
