Just be cause the "eBay Fit Guide" says it will fit an S2, or whatever XJ6, does not mean it's a direct fit. In my case the mounting pins were not the same and there was an extra 3/4 " fitting in the lower outlet that had to be capped. Then after installing it, it leaks out the front from one row driver's center left. Not expensive ($130 US) but ! Vendor is of course saying it must be returned on original packaging, etc,etc which I tossed right after installation. The old Copper/Brass 50 lb radiator didn't leak but all the copper ribbons between the rows were corroded and missing in the lower section. May just reinstall it. The new ones are all Aluminum & very flimsy !
I do not know, in which country you are and I do not know exactly what your radiator looks like. I just had a brief look in ebay and I spotted some new radiators, which are supposed to fit for some Jaguar XJ's, and they are about AU$270. Thus, wherever you are: Check google and ebay first for a new radiator. I bought recently one very cheap (new) on ebay for a Ford Fairlane NL.
