Elanders Ltd is a multi national print group. The facility producing JLR literature is in the North of England.

Although primarily for dealers to order individual handbooks or complete Vehicle Literature Packs for pre-owned vehicles and new vehicles where the owner literature has been lost or damaged, Elanders Ltd will accept orders directly from owners.

One of our New Zealand members has recently obtained a replacement Vehicle Literature Pack for his 2005 XKR and posted a good report on the service:

Much is in the workshop / other tech stuff but not the handbook.
