Is it a member of this forum or TVRCC selling it?

[Eelblady]

Tis me - my S sold earlier in the week, so clearing out. Also have the owners handbook on there

[glenrobbo]

Blimey Earl, you kept that one quiet!
I never saw it advertised?

[TopVpowerRoadste]

Does anyone can tell me the average selling price of Heath's book and an S owners handbook?

I think it would have been nice to include it in the car sale?

Regards,

Geoffrey

Hi Glen, had it on PH classifieds for last month - first guy to see it bought it. Will miss it, but it was my daily driver and my driving requirements have changed over the last year.

Bible is still £35 on Amazon, I got fed up waiting for one to come up on ebay so bought mine new. As to the handbook, I've never seen one for sale....

[glenrobbo]

Well, the Steve Heath "Bible" sells for £25 to £40 on eBay auctions but I would expect the drivers handbook to be included in the sale of the car as part of the title & effects, along with the V5 counterpart, the service history, the spacesaver spare, and the jack and wheelbrace. And a few spare fuses to get the fellow home.

It's the decent thing to do...

Evening, would you be so kind as to PM me how much the car sold for. Would be very useful in resolving my current insurance issues.

Thanks.

Indeed

Earl,
Did you tell the new owner to get on this forum and put himself & his new P & J onto the owners list and partake of the camaraderie and top class banter and teknikkle advice that goes on on here?

Just had notification that my bid has been cancelled and Handbook and Wallet removed from ebay. The original wallet for my S was missing and the handbook has been wet at some time during it's life so this would have been a good deal. Don't suppose any one knows of another source.

WHen you say handbook, do you mean the original manual that TVR supplied with the car? If so, when I bought mine, it came with an extra copy which you're more than welcome to.

My bid has also been removed.
Why put items for sale on ebay to then remove it? Why do not favor TVR fans?

[phillpot]

if searching for a handbook bear in mind there have been (at least) two versions...

The white cover one came with my S3 but still shows the early style dash, Grey one shows later dash with rocker switches. I suspect the short lived "rotary switch S3 dash" never had its own book?

Found the grey one on Ebay a while back







Of course you may also need the plastic "Owners Information" folder that holds the service record and warranty booklets and wiring diagrams

[Sandgrounder]

I think I have an electronic (.pdf) copy of the Owner's Manual, but must have it stored on my work computer. I can post a link if anyone is interested.

I'll have a look when I go back to work tomorrow.

[TurboTony]

I have the original grey handbook and would be happy to make some copies. A donation to S Club Heaven charity would be welcomed though.

[mk1fan]

I have both. Happy to copy. Charitable contribution as above.

Hi Jeremy. Thanks for the offer. My car is a 91 V8S so I am not certain of which handbook I would need. David

Thanks for the PM. Very helpful.
