does anyone know what date the octy manual hits the shops?

Sent them an e-mail last week and they just say the end of May ! carn't wait much longer.

HAYNES MANUAL

Octavia MK1 now available no 4285

It does NOT do 4x4 or 1.4 8v cars but covers everything else

Essport in fife

And the b*****s are sold out already on the website. What a load of t*******s.

The website says they're out of stock !!! :thumbdwn: :confused:

Group buy running at the moment....might be easier to get hol dof one through it...not sure if it's done direct with a distributor etc.

Threads merged.

So glad I dont work at a Skoda main dealer anymore.

"I took this apart as per manual and now it doesnt work...."

Usual Saturday morning line.

You can't escape that easily, Ross. There are dozens of Haynes manuals out there for VWs! :(

Yeah but not as many 'have a go' saturday techies

Fair comment. Did you have Jason in mind?

Newer cars are too much of a pain in the ar$e.

I'll do pads and similar these days, but leave anything complicated to a garage as I really can't be doing with breaking anything.

I've just ordered mine - says 'in stock' https://www.haynes.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10001&storeId=10001&productId=15185&langId=-1&parent_category_rn=10215

Does anyone know if it covers the 1.6l AEE (75hp) engine?

It says it covers from -98 but my octavia is from -97.

Phoned Haynes today to complain about the website saying they were out of stock to be told that there was a website problem and they could take the order over the phone.

Missed the group Buy unfortunately.

Anyone else wanting one, can buy from a seller on ebay for
