Default 2018 FX Sportbrake questions

I have been looking at Sportsbrakes for sale in the USA. I have a few question that owners might be able to answer.

1. Did all 2018 Sportbrake S cars come with 20" wheels? (I found that the "Sportbrake S First Edition" black cars were listed with 19" wheels.
- I have seen one listed for sale with what appears to be OEM 19" wheels. Why would they be 19" wheels? Was this common on the early imports built in 2017?

2. There was a brief thread about obtaining copies of the build sheet / window sticker. Has anyone discovered an easy way to get a Jaguar window sticker without having to spend $10 per VIN? (I am looking a numerous Jaguars, and paying $10 for each car I am interested in add up quickly.)

Thanks.

Well, whatever you do, don't waste your $10 on Moroney labels dot com. They just make stuff up. I paid 10 dollars for a window sticker for my XF that I just bought to get the build and their "original window sticker" said it was red, when actually it's blue. They had features that I don't have on their so called "window sticker" and vice versa. Waste of money. Sad that ripoff companies like that even exist. I didn't have time to write emails to get my money back. I just thought I'd pass the word along everywhere I could. I'm sure they count on people just passing on trying to get a refund as it's only $10. Joke of a company.

My 2018 Sportbrake S (3.0 V6) has 20’ wheels, and it’s the Black edition.

1. No, 20-inch wheels were standard, but 19-inch wheels were a no-cost factory option. It's not rare to see them on a 2018 S.

2. The only reliable free method is the "Jaguar VIN Decoder" website. It's an enthusiast-run site that works for most North American VINs.
