I have the April 1985 edition, covering models 107, 123, 124, 126, and 201. It's a good source of information for different car versions, for looking to see whether another car has a different differential ratio that you might adapt, for settling arguments over torque specs. Perhaps its best feature is that it covers a broad range of models so that you can answer questions about models that you don't own.
