Default Haynes Manual

Hi, I've just bought a XC60 awd which i pick up next week, i was wondering if anybody has got the new style online Haynes autofix manual and if so is it worth the £25 they are asking for it. Is there any other manual you would recommend, i keep reading about VICE and DICE but dont know what i would need or how to obtain it.
Thanks Duncan

If it's the Haynes manual that covers both the XC60 & XC90 - it's not useless but pretty poor. They're very different cars I don't know why they combined them. It would be like combining the manual for the 1.6 D Mini and V70.....

I purchased the Haynes manual for my XC60, but it also incorporates the XC90, to be honest it’s quite pants. I would not want to follow it to do anything to technical. Photographs are black and white only and very grainy, not like they used to be.
