Can someone suggest where I can get a copy of a repair manual for Volvo 850 ('96).

I was thinking of either the Haynes, or getting a workshop manual from the dealer if they carry that. Or is there other suggestions you guys can think about? It's a gift for my friend, so I am looking for a hardcopy, not some PDF file from the net~

Thanks~

Order it from Chapters (http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/books/Volvo-Thru-John-Haynes/9781563923555-item.html?ref=Search+Books%3a+%2527+Volvo+850+Hayn es++and+haynes%2527) for $17, none of that full price BS from Lordco.. PM if you want an extra 10% off coupon.

If it is a gift and since the Volvo is a 96, it should have OBD.. I suggest getting an extra one of those cheap Volvo diagnostic serial cables (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Volvo-Diagnostic-Interface-OBD2-OBD-Scanner-Scan-Tool_W0QQitemZ160416093974QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotor s_Automotive_Tools?hash=item25598b5716) from eBay.. 33 bucks can read live data and clear codes etc. They are from China.. and always pick on that you can counter offer so you can bargain with them.
