Default Need help with VIN number

Does anyone know where I can get a decode of the VIN numbers to model / accessories. I picked up a new XJL, and, based on the VIN number, my insurance company is telling me I have a different model than I though I had. I have SAJWA2GB9....... is this the supercharge model ?

Thanks

Colin

Do the badges on the sides of the front fenders say "supercharged" or are they blank?

They are blank. Thanks for the idea. I bought an XJL non SC, but my insurance company is insisting that the VIN number is for a SC. I got all the extras that the SC has just not the SC engine. I was hoping there was some way of translating the VIN to find what options are installed. The insurance company must be using some database, that is incorrect. Anyone else have the same issue?

Check your vin# with page 8 in the attached document. Someone at your insurance company needs a swift kick in the head!
