I notice another anomaly. Prefix 10 of the VIN of my 1995 XJR is 'B' instead of 'S', and not 'T' or 'V'. It is RHD, original Hong Kong car. It has the emission code 'P', but I do not understand how it is different from other emission codes. My XJR has front cats, floor cats, air injection and and EGR.

Quickest way is to approach the Parts Department at your local Jaguar Dealer. The staff at my nearest Stratstone Jaguar are excellent and view something like this as a challenge!
If your Dealer isn't able to help then Jaguar CRC (Customer Relations Centre) in Coventry (contactable through the forum - CRC@Jaguar) should have the answer.
NOTE: to members outside the UK - Jaguar CRC in Coventry, UK can only assist UK queries. Members in other countries should contact their own Jaguar Customer Relations Centre.

Thank you very much for your replies, i found this https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/g...hassis-121274/
I did not know it has two VINS, a "Born with" Vin, and the USA compliant Vin, Will check in the morning, or maybe later, if curiosity gets the better of me

Mark I would just disregard your reply from Topix.
I have an Australian registered XJR (full history from new) & Digit 10 is also "B" which to the best of my knowledge indicates "X300 (95-97MY)"
Digit 11 is "P" which indicates emission C. My vehicle has no EGR, a secondary air pump & only 2 O2 sensors, not 4 as per Japanese vehicles.
It is not an import from another country, it an Australian Design rules complied vehicle as evidenced by its history & Australian Compliance plate.
Yes the build date is also evident on a plate adjacent to the VIN in the boot.
Your Digit 8 (D) is of course correct, a 4L engine.

The "Born With" VIN decoder in my service manual is quite different from the chart above from JPEC! The service manual states that for prefix 10, B or R or S represents 1995 model year. My car has an S which is correct.
Prefix 8 in the service manual still shows that D is the code for a 4.0 Mark Murphy.
My car shows T for prefix 11, which is not on the list above at all! But it IS on the other list, as Emission A.
Now how do I cut a page from that PDF manual and post it here?
