Just a thought but if you gave the reg no. to a Jaguar service dept they can sometimes bring up the vehicle details including maybe vin no.

All I need now is the Vin No of the V12 Reg No JAG 542 Y which was for sale in October 2006. It is taxed untill 01-09-2008.

Does this help:

Can't get the VIN without knowing it already! Can you cross ref from the engine no. I know there's been a plate change but according to this its not a V12.

I think a very large Single Malt is in orde
CHeers, I shall be off for a nice cold beer myself later.

Bleasie, the car check I used costs £3.95 a go so was by way of a contribution! It only allows you to check the VIN by confirming the one you type in. I don't know if it will allow 10 goes.

But I can inform you that the corecct VIN is SAJJNACW3CC13597.

I got lucky with a google search on the reg no, it was up for auction in 2005, have a look at

Chris,

1 digit missing on the VIN. Should have 6 digits at the end.

It has been writen by many that two Cabriolets were trimmed in Burberry fabric, one a V12 & one a 3.6.


I know your research has moved on somewhat since, but I came across this in an old xjsb magazine which implies the Burberry V12 was a coupe.

Maybe of some help or not. Although my scan isn't too clear that round object in the back seems to be a flat cap. Obviously the term Chav hadn't been invented at that time.

The magazine was Issue 1. August 1998 'XJS Bulletin'

There were only 6 issues published as separate A4 size 12 page magazines until they were incorporated into the main body of 'Jaguar World' magazine.

I've been having a last look through them before placing on Ebay, When they are, I will post on the forum as I can imagine there are a few articles and tech tips that others would be interested in.
