Not a good choice for someone without a LOT of experience and background
in cars generally and Vanagons particularly.  The Bentley manual seems to
be a compilation and summary of the "real" VW shop manual and assumes
you're a qualified VW mechanic only needing some Vanagon-specific
information.

I think there's a Haynes manual out for the water-cooled Vanagons which
is more of a DIY'ers manual.  I think Bus Depot (www.busdepot.com) might
carry it.  Save the Bentley for when you're more experienced.
