new owner from MD
Finally got one of these contraptions, a '93 Collectors Edition. Has numerous issues. Trying to get a manual before I start pummeling you people with questions. Does anyone have a usable Bentley for sale? They are $80 on ebay. Which Haynes or Chilton would work? Thanks

They usually run about 50 bucks on Amazon.

Yes as matter of fact, I have the Luck o'the Irish...everything I touch turns to fertilizer of the bovine variety.

First, welcome! 
Second:
Chilton's is only worthy of being kindling, and Haynes is okay if you have a CIS-era car (which your '93 is not).
As Brian said, head to Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Volkswagen-Cabrio ... 0837603629 . Used manuals start at just under $50.

I got a Haynes up to '92 at Wonderbook for $3. I also scored a John Muir air-cooled manual signed by the author.

I got my $3 Haynes '75-'92 manual today. What info in there is of no value to my '93?

Does our '93 have the Digifant II system?

In the Rain Tray (under the hood) Drivers side is the Electronic Control Unit.
Digi 1 was really a California thing limited to 90 to 91 on cars that were delivered to California.
That is why they ask is it a "C" or a "B"
The 5 number over on your VIN is the "digi1 or 2" wvwxX
Whereas X=A,B,or C After 91 all should be B
B=digi2
C=digi1

Re: new owner from MD
Digi2 is covered in this manual so it should be of some value. Thanks!
