RIP Mr Haynes.

Haynes manuals have saved me some big garage bills over the years. It was always nice to look something up and find out it was an easy fix.

I don't think my Type 45 Destroyer and Millennium Falcon manuals will prove as handy but they are still a good read

Sorry to hear this.

I owned several well-thumbed and oil stained volumes over the years, I could not have rebuilt the hydraulic clutch system of my Range Rover in Egypt without the manual. I'm glad I joined the list of authors recently.

Some of the most practical works ever put to paper. A greasemonkeys best friend.
