They have one for the Non-Turbo Engines and one for the Diesel...

Basically anything to do with repairs taking apart the car and how to put it back together, wiring, removing gear boxes, brakes, tools required etc. apparently very detailed...will let you know more when I get it...

Yeh, they're pretty good, I've got one for the Calibra and it'll detail and show you quite a bit, but unfortunately they never cover all variants and they don't cover all parts of the car and some details are even incorrect or incomplete, but I'd still have one of these manuals over nothing at all and they are well priced for what they offer :)

I actually found my Calibra over the weekend and thought if there was anything for the AH.

there you go! time to update (when the turbo one comes out)!

Yeh, you'll have to wait !

When I got the one for the Cali, I was told they typically release them years after the model of car is released, (this is according to Repco) so there was nothing yet for the TS convertible...and I believe there still isn't, as said they don't always do all the variants of a specific model and don't cover all engine types either...
