Here you go - I think the swift group has the sprite manuals. Someone correct me if I'm wrong!

I couldn't find a manual for mine - (not surprising, it's 30 years old! LOL) so I bought a Haynes caravan manual for that sort of year and it's come in really useful. You can get the Haynes one on ebay and amazon.

Bully - I may still have a handbook for Sprites from the late 1980’s, as I used to have an Esprite Charade, and it could cover the Alpine. I'll check later this evening, and if I can locate it will send you something.

I've just had a look on my PC, where I thought I had a scanned copy, but it isn't there. But not to worry, because that means it must be on an old hard drive which I've still got, so if you give me a day or so, I'll fire it up and try and find it. Then if you let me have your e-mail address, I'll send you on a copy. If you want to contact me direct, my email is

northa2901 at aol.com

I'll see what I can do - always happy to help a fellow caravanner!

Al.

Hi Bully1 - I've located it (couldn't wait!), and according to the front cover, it's for the 1989 year, and doesn't cover the Alpine2, but the XL, Eccles, Esprit, Elite, and Voyager. BUT the technical page does have the dimensions etc for the Alpine2! There's also chassis data and other information which is fairly generic to that range of models. So it may be useful to you, there were only 7 pages, and I'll happily mail them to you if you want.

northa2901 at aol.com
(that's the 'at' symbol, of course!).

Regards,

Al.

I know this discussion hasn't had any activity since 2015, but any chance I may have a copy of that manual as I have just bought a 1989 sprite alpine xl and I have no manual

It’s unlikely as the OP is dated 2012 and the person hasn’t posted since 2013. The one 2015 post got no reply, not even from the person who left their email address a few years prior.
But you never know! Let’s hope someone has what you’re looking for.

2024 = 20 sites / 41 nights. 2023 = 9/23. 2022 = 13/35. 2021 = 11/29. 2020 = 4/20. 2019 = 13/35. 2018 = 20/33. 2017 = 10/22. 2016 = 19/33. 2015 = 15 sites / 27 nights. Didn't count 1976 to 2014.

Welcome to the Forum, have you read the post above yours from Fiona W ?

-------------
XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.
