Did you physically look the vehicle over? Is the MIL on? Has the coolant hose beneath the supercharger been replaced? Has the gearbox been serviced?

Ignore the 205 as that number was for the UK.

Rather than someone repost them, use Search for the lengthy details already on here.

By way of example, 2003 STR worldwide was 1168

Understood ! I found it thanks jagv8, https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/s...igures-155346/
I'm unsure if these are infact biuld no#s or sales no#s as stated ! My documentation says mine was biult late 02 but is regestered as 03 how do know if it's one of 02 3000odd or one of 03 1168 ? . And how the heak does this seller know this car is no#19 ? And it's LHD so it isn't one of the U.K. Builds !

Consult Jaguar.

The claim in the ad, which is wrong, is probably also false.

Honestly, any ad which goes out of its way to claim the seller 'overseas for military duty", is usually a scam... the low price is there to bait you out...
the story will go, he is out of the country, wire him some money, and he will have his associate look after the sale and shipping the vehicle to you in his absence... etc etc etc, i can smell the scam ads from space, this one's likely not legit...
