I expected this manual to be as complete as other Auto repair Manuals, however I was rather dissapointed on that this manual was net very deep into system especially the the fuel injection. Stick to manufactures repair manual if you can or CD

You don't get a lot of book for your money with this one. The cover illustration ...is really nice, and it goes downhill from there. The Chilton book is actually more useful than this one! (Guess what: It's also at least twice as thick.)

Haynes usually excels -- but with Mercedes they've really left us in a lurch. As of this writing (7/25/01), they don't cover the 80s R107 and W126 models, including the 380SL, SEC and SEL models now quite affordable (and loved) by tinkerers.

it seems to be as complete as any Haynes books I own
it gives you the basics and some inportant info
but not complete

Decent for entry level learning about the model and basic jobs, although the Mercedes factory manuals are better. The ones on CD are poorly scanned, so wait and find an older hardcopy on ebay.

I need to do some work on my mercedes. I saw the book on mercedes repair on amazon and it was a good deal. I ordered it. The seller was very resonsive and fast with shipping. I feel amazon is a great service to people needing , not just everyday items , but things not that easy to find just anywhere. I rate the transaction 4 stars. Thank you amazon and its sellers.

Book was as described. Shipping and transaction fast and easy. This manual is meant for the serious auto mechanic or very knowledgeable car enthusiast. Very technical, just as I expected.

By the time I received this book it was worth $35 and I waited a month for it to arrive. The book it,s self is probably worth maybe $2 and the contents a $1 so as you can tell I was not very impressed with the book

Anyone out there know if this book covers 380SL and 500SL 1981 model year onwards. Amazed that Haynes haven't seen fit to publish one or at least tag a section onto this book.
