I have the bentley manual for the Eurovan. It's o.k. Not as useful as the e34(for me). It's gigantic, with the price to match. It's twice as thick as the e34. My biggest problems are as follows. 1.) it covers MANY eurovan variations worldwide. Many of them were never in the states. I have a '95 eurovan camper which is totally different from the european eurovan camper. 2.) The manual is clearly designed for the VW dealer, not the home mechanic. Lots of instructions like " complete the next three steps using VW tool # 1543 and then follow the tool #4326 instructions". You get the idea. Not much trouble shooting info, just instructions on how to read the diagnostic equipment found at the dealership.

It's useful, but not as good as the e34. The car is also a real hassle to work on, no space. Don't know anything about the caravelle.

Hope this helps, let me know if you have specific questions.
