I've recently sold my little Gobur folding caravan and bought an Elddis Whirlwind XL 2 berth. It's a bit of an oldie (1990) and has no manuals or handbooks with it. Does anyone know of a site from where these can be purchased or is it a case of just keeping an eye out for some, on ebay or whatever. I would also like to be able to buy some decals as those on the 'van are a bit tired.
Thanks.

Google car graphics and find a local one or online one and shows them a picture of what you want and they can usually match it.

The manuals are like 120 pages, which will be 100 pages of H&S and adverts and 20 pages of actual info relating to your van.

All the appliances will be made by someone else and the manuals for those items are often easier to obtain and mostly online.

I agree with all the above! Hiya Cynthia, nice to see you posting on here!

Better is to get an older Haynes Manual for caravans in general.

Something like this:

Companies that do graphics for vans etc should be able to copy and replicate what you have.

I had the same van. Just googled the appliances and got manuals for all of them. Then just downloaded a generic manual for the van. Nice little van easy to work out how to use.
