Hi all,

I know this is not a caravan but it is used for towing caravans etc.

I just got a 90 series Toyota Land Cruiser Prado "Grande" Gas/Petrol. The seller didn't have the Owners Manual that you get with a car. Does anyone know where I can get one please. I have tried to Google it but with no success.

Have you tried Ebay Doug.
What about Car swap meets, might have some luck at one of those.

Try contacting your local Toyota dealer Doug. They may at least point you in the right direction. smile

I have checked ebay marj with no luck and the local Toyota dealer didn't want to know me Firefly but I expected that from them, they have never been friendly critters. I will check another dealer tomorrow as I will be in Frankston. I will check a couple of wreckers as well.

Is there a Toyota owners club or  forum that you can try. Might be worth a quick search, or try your local library they often have some of the full w/shop manuals if you want to look something up.

Hi Landy, I have the workshop manual but that's not what I want and hope I never will, that's what mechanics are for but it will be with me when I travel.

Dougwe, I got one for my Troopy from Toyota, but they charged me $25.00 and ripped out the servicing chits up to the current odometer reading.

I checked with Toyota in Berwick yesterday with no luck, they were very helpful though and said it is no longer available so back to the drawing board. I will keep checking wreckers and look into your suggestion Landy, thanks all.
