   Hi,
   
   I'm new to driving and new to Saxo owning.
   
   I own a 1997 Citroen Saxo Mischief.
   
   Unfortunately my Saxo did not come with a Owners Manual, does anyone know where I can get one from?
   
   If anyone has a manual for an English 1997 Citroen Saxo Mischief Manual I will happily paypal them 15 euro to scan it and email me a folder full of jpgs.
   
   Thanks,
   ANkh

   Get a Haynes manual, theyre awesome.. Most main car shops sell them like Halfords or even online like Amazon and Ebay etc

   but haynes is a repair manual not an owners manual!!!!
   
   ebay is the best bet or speak to the likes of mandylover who breaks saxos
   
   the problem you have is that due to the age of the car most of them no longer have the orginal books with them

   Hi,
   
   It should be right here: http://www.autoownermanuals.com/manu...ual%201997.pdf
   This looks like the right book on ebay:

   DO you really need one? All it does is tell you what switches do which isn't hard to figure out. The import stuff is all on here in the FAQ's/Stickies. Why not just buy one off eBay?

   I know absolutely nothing about cars. How to operate my one seems like a good place to start.
   
   My post above yours links to a manual on ebay which I'll buy if it's price hasn't sky rocketed by the end of the auction.
   (they're charging 6.50 to post to Ireland for some reason)
