You''ll find some info here http://www.jaguarforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=15643&highlight=towbar and as I see from your profile you''re in the UK it will be more useful than I first thought!!

I agree with norri re the 2000 S - I have one [V6], and apart from being told to consider it very carefully [tow nothing heavier than a 400Kg trailer], the cost is exorbitant here in Australia [Jaguar quote over $2000 - about UKP 950].

None of the commercial towbar fabricators make anything for an s-Type. I ended up fitting a bar to my daughter''s Mits Lancer, and borrow it whenever I need to tow my trailer. Not perfect but a lot cheaper.

Cheers

David
