I wonder if any-one has any information on 2003 s-type sports 200. I was told that 200 cars were made and divied up amongst U.K. dealers. Am I being naive to beleive this or is there any substance? If so was there any thing to I D these cars? Hope someone can help..Thanks Ed.

It appears as if it is exactly what you said... Only 200 made and distributed across the market. Now I'm going to go and take some aspirin for the eye strain headache I got from trying to read your font. hehe

RE: Identification

Yes, This listing in Trade-Me. is what has caught my interest.[increased font size in the interest of lowering drug use]. Cannot find any other reference to "only 200 made." The only hint is that a limited edition was started in may 2003 and I have sighted 2 auto versions [the one in trade me is a manual] in various listings for sale. I know 200 was tied up as a designation in the earlier planning of the present s-type and it does have 200 on the rear badge, what is the significance of this? I want to know if I may be dealing with an urban myth as I am tempted to get a stable mate for my '66 and my better half want's an airbag. Expensive airbag!!!At least I could get more than one.

RE: Identification

I'm not sure if it was an available option or not on euro cars but i notice it has the same body kit as my S type R complete with dual exhaust, that wasnt an option here in the states at all
