Thank you very much for the information Mike .

Luckily I managed to obtain an original Spitfire 4 / Mk 1 owner's handbook /
manual and an original Spitfire 4 / Mk 1 sales brochure a few years ago . If
you know the Triumph scene in South Africa , you'll understand what an
extremely lucky find it was .  One of the very kind USA listers also sent me
an original Triumph Service Voucher booklet ( facilities available to owners
of Vitesse 6 , Spitfire 4 , Herald 1200 , Herald 12/50 ) . If in need I can
post phototsat copies to interested parties .

So I'm currently on the hunt for an original Spitfire 4 parts catalogue and
an original workshop manual ( already have a Haynes manual ) .

Will most probably contact TSSC by e-mail . Telephone calls to the UK are
best left to the Rolls , Aston Martin etc. collectors :-)

Kind regards .

Hi Chris,

I have the TSSC Offers "Accessories Catalogue" in front of me, and along
with workshop manuals (specifically described as reproduction) and parts
catalogues, the following are listed:

<QUOTE>
Leyland Handbooks
My manual is either a mint-condition original, or a perfect facsimile.

There is no listing, sadly, for a Spitfire 4/MkI owner's manual.

I suggest that you give TSSC Offers a ring on +44 1858 434424 and see
what they say.   Alternatively (but more slowly), their e-mail address
is: <offers@tssc.uk.com>.

ATB
Mike
