I got one when I was 17, useful for seeing how to take bits apart but then again so would a standard Haynes Manual for a corsa.

I'l chuck it in with whoever buys my shell so they can put it back together

the colour illustrations are better than the conventual haynes manual,
i found the modify manual usefull for taking apart interior panels etc.

the trends and fashion activities are a little dated now however.
a good read, try it out

That the SRi engine? Multi point Injection? My Haynes has details on it?

As said though, a quick google search brings up lots of things about Corsa A's, so a Nova Haynes might be worth a look.

Easier to follow than the standard haynes for the stuff mentioned in both. Not really worth buying unless you get it for pennies though.

I got it when i was 16, before getting my corsa. Was something to read and was helpful in places.

But CS was more helpful, one example is the MP Haynes manual says taking bumpers off to replace lights CS say give it a wiggle
