Didn't know there was such a thing as a 6.0L X300
I was at the web site, JustJagsUK.com, looking for a TPS for my 1995 X300. The part they listed was for a 6.0L X300. I didn't know there was such a thing as a 6.0L X300. Can someone enlighten me please. Being on the west side of the pond I need some education in this area.
Thanks guys

Yes indeed.
Last of the "real engined" Jags.
As far as I remember only a few hundred ever made, no idea of RHD/LHD numbers.
I think there are only 4 or 5 in Australia, and I also believe they are all Daimlers, but I may be wrong????.
Nippon Denso engine management system, super reliable, and just the best ever in MY opinion. Still fetching "serious" money whenever one appears for sale.

Wanted one but couldn't face the fuel bills. Starting with a 3.2 instead.

I'd love to have one one day. It certainly must rank as one of the all time great Jaguars. Sadly, the few that come up for sale always seem to need quite a bit of attention. You can buy these for peanuts in the USA. But I'd have to think that a truly mint condition example would command a high price from a Jaguar guy.

While you have your source to hand (my copy of Nigel's book is packed away ready for my house move), would you mind listing 3.2 Sovereign LWBs by year? I recall the total is 305. Mine's a 1996 MY, built in late 1995.
I'd love to know the breakdown by colour and handedness but people tell me that involves a lot of paperwork and mainframe time at Jaguar.
