The quickest way is undoubted on the motorways and incurring the toll costs.
It's also, unsurprisingly, the most dull and costly route.
If you're heading to Italy, I'd say the quickest route is to head straight down from Calais, past Reims, Dijon and Lyon, to Grenoble, and then head across into Turin. That can be done in a (long) day, although it would be a shame not to take your time and do some of the scenic route in at least one direction.
306 Haynes manual is reasonable for what it is. Careful if buying 2nd hand as some versions don't cover later cars, most notable in terms of wiring diagrams and engine specific stuff on later 16v and HDi engines. GTi-6 / Rallye specific stuff isn't covered, but that's not applicable to you if you've a 1.8
