Owners handbooks

#1 Post by misterp »

Unfortunately my car came with absolutely zero documentation (other than the rego papers etc) and due to my slack-ness I've just missed out on a local Dolomite Sprint owners manual (the yellow one that lives in the glovebox). The owners manuals seem to be thin on the ground as a quick check on eBay UK and AUS turns up nothing.
I'm not precious about the original, but does anyone have an electronic copy so Im able to at least reference it/re-print if needed?
There seems to be plenty of online sources for the workshop repair manual, but none that i can find of the owners manual, so if you can help with either/or the Sprint (yellow) and/or the 1850 (Magenta) manuals electronically then Id really appreciate the help.

Thanks

The TSSC do repros

I bought one for my 13/60 and it is pretty good.

I can create an electronic copy of the handbook from my Heritage CD-ROM. Ironically, I did everything that was on the disc bar the handbooks. I can't remember if the disc works in Win 10 so I might have to reinstall VMWare to run a Win XP installation so's I can read the disc.

I have four Sprint versions, three for the 1500HL, one for the 1850HL and one for the original Dolomite (1854cc), so I think I can spare one. None of them are pristine mind, having spent 30+ years in a glove box!

Large letter at 138 g would cost £5.05 to send to you International Standard, or £3.65 International Economy plus a voluntary consideration....

If it's the 'Original Technical Publications' one it works fine in Win 10.

Thanks everyone for the help.

Steve's useful repository of manuals came up trumps.
