Default Owners handbook version.

My owners handbook that came with my 1988 (Build date 11/87) is dated 7/88 but is for the digital dash model.

I downloaded a 87 handbook, this is dated 8/86, is this the correct one? Or is there a 8/87 issue?

Thanks.

Ivan - there is an 87 owners manual and an 88 owners manual but not currently available.
Also they were printed in UK English and USA English as two different versions.

I have both 87 & 88 publications from cars sent to the US.

The one that was in my 88 had a rev date in 87 (since they had to be ready for the new m. y.) ... I'll attach a pic.
The pages for the spreads fold / open out on the 88.

Also the plastic document holder is the 88's last page vs the first on the '87....another pic attached.

They updated them for other markets and for each year.

Roger,
I was thinking about selling the 88 manual .... what would be a fair price to ask for it.

Thanks Roger, hopefully they'll become available again?
