Where might I find a Ghibli II owner's manual?

[general_piffle]

I've been looking on eBay for an owner's manual for a while but none have come up. I wondered if anyone here knew where I might find one for a 1996 Ghibli GT? It doesn't have to be original (as I guess they're pretty rare) it could be a reprint or copy. Thanks.

I've got one you're welcome to borrow/copy. But I'll check my files as I may even have a spare.

Great stuff, thanks Ewan!

Good news - I've been through the files in my office and I've found one. Bad news - it's in Italian. But of course, if you speak/read Italian, this won't be a problem You're very welcome to borrow it if you think it'll be helpful.

I'll check at home tonight, as I may have another copy there. Failing that I have a friend with a 1999 Ghibli GT (currently with me) and the correct handbook (in English) is in the leather book pack. While he'll not want to part with it, I could easily look up something for you if you need me to, or photocopy some of the pages, etc.

Feel free to call my office if you want to chat. The number is on the website: www.coppercoat-superyacht.com

Ewan, thanks so much for looking. Unfortunately my Italian is non-existent beyond ordering an espresso! There aren't any pages I need copying as such was more looking for a complete one (copy or original) in English for future reference. But thanks again for checking, much appreciated

it's actually quite a useful document

tells you the layout of key relays and goes into some detail on fluid servicing

Hi Joel

This may be of some use, its a downloadable version of the owners manual for the early version, as far as interior controls, chassis I.d plate locations, basic maintenance etc its the same as the GT. Its in Italian but I can help you with translation if required.

If you want a hard copy there's a 1994 manual for sale on Italian eBay, again pretty well the same content as the GT:

^ Thanks very much for this. I've gone ahead and nabbed it as they seem to be relatively difficult to find in Italian - never mind English!

 

[Ewan]

Sounds like I better hang on to my Italian copy then, just in case I ever need a manual. As let's face facts, I'm bound to buy my 4th Ghibli at some point!

It would be worth trying David Askew. Or if you need anything specific let me know and I'll look at mine.

General: A while ago I found the extra supplement/book about the GT and KS somewhere on the internet. I just sent you a PM

 

[general_piffle]

I would say definitely Ewan. Like so many Ghibli II parts, things are slowly getting rarer!

I'd be interested in any KS info you have.

Here you go... the supplement

Very helpful, thank you DC! From looking at the pics I've realised I have the 'Kit Sportivo' toolkit in the boot of my Ghibli, all complete as well, which must be fairly rare. Love finding out more about these cars.
