Hi
Just purchased my 2000 AU forte. Ive been told that there isnt a users manual with the car... is there somewhere i can download one, in PDF format or the like? 2000 model 120,000km on the clock for $10,000, owned by an old couple that did a fair few trips between Brisbane and Sydney - so mainly highway kmś which is good. Talked them down from $11,000. Have attached some pics of my purchase - before you ask, dont mind the shiny hubcaps - yes im picking some nice new 18¨ wheels on the way home when i go to get the car. Otherwise the car is in mint condition.. not a mark on it, with the nice black interior too - im not a fan of the grey. |

When myford.com.au was up and running, it had downloadable manuals for your Ford. Just waiting for its return (currently being revamped).

Very nice Szeps. Just got mine a month ago, first Ford ever. Love it. Same colour and model as yours but in a wagon.
Well done.... Just a thought, presuming you bought her from a dealer, can they put you in touch with the previous owners. They probably still have the original owners manual. Just a thought |

Szeps
Ask the dealer to contact them for you. I hope they haven't spun you one. Dealers and I have a long history of not liking each other very much because I hate dishonesty and decietfulness. Put some pressure on them. JMO |
