Bentley Manual
Is there anywhere online to purchase and download a .pdf of the Bentley manual for a 986? Or does anyone know where I can find a local copy in the St. Louis area?

Thanks!

Bentley manuals do not exist in an electronic format, only as a book. Amazon (amongst others) carry them in hard copy.

Not true... I have the Bentley BMW E34 manual in PDF on my laptop. Although I have not found the 986 service/repair manuals from Bentley in PDF yet, I do have the factory Technical/Service manual in PDF form.

As we are being pedantic, the manual he wants has never been available in that form.
