Title: Wanted: Kappa owners handbook
Post by: stuwilson128 on 08 January, 2012, 05:03:27 PM

I have had a request from somebody who is looking for an owners handbook and any associated supplements for a Kappa 2.4, in English.  He has tried to get one through Fiat after I identified the part numbers, but he has been told that they are no longer available.  Does anybody have one spare?  If you can help out, please message me and I will pass on the contact details.

Could ask a question off this seller.......

And am assuming these are solely in Italian.....?

The seller of the brochure is Richard who sells our club regalia!  He only has sales brochures and not owners handbooks.  The others are in Italian.  Unfortunately, as the Kappa was never sold in the UK, I suspect that there are not many owners handbooks which are in English.

I would be very suprised if anyone but me has an English k handbook as they would have come with their native language book from new. Auto Halan thoughtfully ordered English handbooks for both my Ypsis and the k coupe

I found my Coupe in Germany in 2001 so it had a handbook in German.  I contacted my then local Fiat dealer
(sadly no more) who obtained one for me in English.

I too have an English version, ordered via John Whalley Ltd about six years ago.  There must be 10s if not 100s out there somewhere as the printing costs for an English version would have been astronomical for a very low print run. Alternatively the may have been pulped.

Details of the manual:
Print no. 603.45.095 - VI - 1998 2nd Edition - Printed by Satiz S.p.A. - Turin (Italy)
Coordinamento Editoriale Satiz S.p.A. - Torino

Does anyone have a Kappa owners manual in English that I can either purchase or copy?

Thanks
