The Haynes is good for procedural instruction on maintenance, etc.. The Bentley is good for that plus it's good for diagnosing problems..
I have the Haynes, rarely use it, but I reference it on occasion. Nover bothered to get the Bentley.

The bentley is more expensive but you can always got a used one of amazon.com. The new ones are reasonably priced to begin with.

Get bentley and if possible get the CD. It has search functions and more diagnostics than the paper version.
