I have never received a 'little plastic passport card' for any new Leica item I have ever purchased, nor am I aware of anything in the literature I have received saying that I should be so honoured. I have placed one warranty claim, and it was promptly and cheerfully honoured without any request for documentation at all -- they simply replaced it. I do receive the system handbook every year or three, but that's because I now know enough to ask for it -- I was sent one, gratis, two years ago by Leica and foolishly mentioned on the LUG that I had received this, only to find that everyone else seems to get one automatically ...
