" Thanks to all who have contributed to this discussion. For clarity (of a sort) I have received the following reply from Jaguar UK

Oil specification - petrol engineAn oil of 5W-30 viscosity meeting Jaguar specification WSS-M2C-913 - A or B is preferred. Where this is not possible, oil meeting API SJ/EC and ACEA A1 98 or A3 98 may be used "

Where did you plan to buy this oil? Many sellers know perfectly well what kind of oil and for which car it is suitable. Besides, wouldn't it be easier for you to do it at a car service station? They would have been able to do everything very quickly and independently would have picked up a high-quality oil for you. Usually, the documents that are attached with the car indicate the necessary oil, but if you have lost these documents, you can use such sites as cararac.com to find out the exact details about your car. In any case, I know that you have already chosen your oil, but I hope that this post will be useful for other users who accidentally stumble upon this topic. All have a good day, take care of your cars!
