DIY VW ENGINE REPAIR BOOK EXCELLENT
I gave this book to a friend because many years ago I had a copy of the spiral bound edition for repairing and rebuilding my "bug" engine. My friend's grandson has just purchased an old VW BUS. I thought he would find the book useful and entertaining.

Best VW Survival Guide
This is the best written and illustrated book dealing with repair and maintenance of air-cooled Volkswagens that I have seen. It has a touch of humor that helps one get through notty problems, and is written in clear and easy to understand language. It is very well laid out making any information needed easy to find and follow. The illustrations and photographs are very clear and concise, and the images with humor are just the right touch. This book takes the place of at least 4 others that I previously had and I will keep it in a handy place as long as I own a Beetle! Thanks, John and Tosh, well done!

A great book for beginners
This book is very easy to navigate and is extremely informative. Chapter titles (i.e. Volkswagen Doesn't Stop: Brakes) set the mood for each section of the book, and lots of background information is given. Unfortunately, Muir is not God when it comes to Volkswagens and a lot of the information that he gives is just plain wrong. Take everything in this book with a grain of salt (ESPECIALLY when he's talking about switching from vacuum lines to mechanical. That's just stupid.) If you're a VW newbie, however, you can't get much better than this book.
