Owners Manual

I just bought 2008 DB9 with sport package, auto and 10,414 mile for $82k, is that a good price?? Also they had changed the back lights with clear at a cost of $1700.00

Anyway, the car came without the Owners Manual, where can I find a cheap one?

Thank you,

I think that's a pretty good price.. Was it from a dealer, certified, did it have full service records etc. all factor in when considering how good of a deal it was. I've seen manuals pop up on eBay once in a while.. Might also give Aston Martin Bits a try as well. Congrats and welcome!

If you don't care about the original printed one, your dealer can download one from the AM site and put it on a USB drive.

PDF on a USB drive -- or better yet, on your phone -- is the way to go. If your battery dies you can't get into the glovebox when you need it most.

If you're looking to get an original owner's manual that you might order from the dealer, I think you're looking at about $500. ;-{

www.astonmartinbits.com would be your best bet, I've noticed a lot of people like to 'misplace' these when they sell their car, only to sell them on eBay.

Is there an AM dealer in Oregon? If not, you might also want to spend some time searching for manual downloads on this & other forums. Or spend about $100 to download manuals from www.astonmartintechinfo.com.

I'll second astonmartinbits. He was able to order me an OM for a '97 DB7. Comes right from AM. About $225 US but the newer ones could be less expensive.

And Sam, the word "cheap" is no longer in your vocabulary.

There's not a dealer in Oregon. The closest one is in Bellevue Washington (which makes it quite the pain for little service items).

I paid 70 pounds for a day (24 hour pass) to get into Aston official site? downloaded the manual as well as the factory workshop manual as well as the rattles and squeaks manual for my car and all recalls and recommended recalls and factory mandated upgrades, I had to enter my info and a VIN number I now have file on my car that is highly comprehensive!
I have since printed and bound the car owners manual and it lives in the glove box
