It all depends on who makes it. If its a Bently manual on CD then its
90% a sure thing. If its anything else... its crap. I bought a
mitchel repair catalog through Ebay and its essentially useless. It
does have all the wiring diagrams but that's about it.

For Audi 100 '89 Bentley makes only paper manual, and something called
"Official Factory Microfiche Archived on CD-ROM". What is this CD? Is it
this paper manual scanned and saved on CD?

It is a compendium of the same microfiches that were photographs of the
original printed manual...

Well, I purchased what turned out to be a Mitchell manual on cd from eBay
(not this particular trader it has to be said) - total waste of money -
avoid. However, were you in the states, with a us spec car then perhaps it
would have been worth it. As it did not cover UK spec cars, it's not worth
having. Doesn't even make a decent coffee cup mat as it's a poor quality cd!

As with all things - "buyer beware".
