Hi Gerard,
I should have learned by now not to put anything on this list until I go back
and check it out <G> Both of my manuals are four ring binders not three ring
binders. The Sprite and Midget manual is sort of pea green and about 1/3 of
the front is a very dark green. The part number is AKD 4021 C replacing AKD
1775 B and AKD 1834 B. There is no "Edition" number and the only date is the
BMC copyright of 1965. Where the Sprite Mk IV / Midget Mk III differ from
prior models there are “supplemental" section pages with a lower case (a).
For instance "Engine Section A" and "Engine Section Aa" Most of the pages
have "Sprite and Midget. Issue X. 4780" where X is some number from 1 to
6. But in some areas the 4780 changes to 65317. Also the later manual is
on "A" size paper as where the earlier one is on US letter size (8 1/2 by 11)
Now for the BMC manual triva quiz :-)

<< Bob,
I'm curious if you have the same one that I have. Your desciption varies
somewhat. Mine is light blue-green but covers the same models you specify.
Mine however is a 4 ring binder and was likely puchased around 1970 or
somewhat later as the copyright is 1970. My publication part number is AKD
4021 (11TH EDITION) Copyright British Leyland (Austin-Morris) Limited,
1970. Cover labeled "SPRITE-MIDGET" one above the other. Also purchased
from a dealer. Just curious how many variations there are.
