Welcome to the forums Vivian,

Good to have you with us. The VIN tells me it is a 2.9 litre baseline LHD automatic.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xj40-xj81-25/ to the XJ40 forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the Europe Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/europe-42/ to find other members in your region.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Vivian,

The VIN doesn't give much more information. Here is the decode:





For the full specification for your XJ40, you will have to ask any Jaguar Dealer for a printout. This used to be publicly available through Jaguar TOPIx but, with data protection, Jaguar now restrict it to dealers.
