wuvvum Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Last weekend's turnout of my cupboard under the stairs yielded a veritable treasure trove* of car-related literature. Included amongst the stash was a large number of handbooks and workshop manuals for cars I've owned in the past but will almost certainly never own again. So I thought I might as well see if there's anyone out there in Shiteland who can make use of them. All are available for £P&P, or (preferably) can be picked up free from Shitefest.

keef Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Could use the Maxi one, if still available please. Where you based? Do you go to any of the shows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuvvum Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 Maxi is still available. I'm in north Norfolk - I don't get to many shows these days, although I'm hoping to go to the FOTU this year, and the BL day at Peatboghorror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuvvum Posted June 18, 2017 Author Share Posted June 18, 2017 Further cupboard clearage has unearthed some additional handbooks and manuals, as follows: Handbooks for the following: Rover 200 (R8)LDV Pilot / ConvoyMercedes 190ECitroën AXToyota Townace ('80s / '90s forward control version) - apparently quite rare in EnglishHonda Accord (early 2000s hatchback shape)Renault 21Nissan QX And HBOLs for the Saab 900 classic and the Peugeot Indenor engines. I now (finally) have some padded envelopes big enough to contain HBOLs without bursting at the seams, so ready to rumble as regards sending stuff out.

Conrad D. Conelrad Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 The XJ40 handbook would be most appreciated! Let me know how I can send you the postage £s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuvvum Posted June 18, 2017 Author Share Posted June 18, 2017 Couple more handbooks unearthed today - Honda Civic (2001-2006 shape) and Hyundai H100 van. Plus a number of 1960s books on engine tuning and a couple of WW2-era motorists' encyclopædia-type books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
