They never sell for much unless mint and super rare. I go to a massive carboot everyweek end and see hundreds for sale for like £1 each!

If you have a Volvo S60 one I'll buy that.

Or, I could swap you a tatty copy of the Cortina Mk 4 manual!

I have a habit of picking them up when I see them cheap. Can't argue with a mk1 fiesta manual for 50p!

The only manual i want is one that covers the Mk1 Focus RS but none of the Haynes manuals cover it (can anyone advise any manuals that did cover it? Presumably Ford must have something that they used like a workshop manual).
