Genuine filters are only $30 in Australia. Maybe 20 pounds in UK. Don't think there are any cheap generics that will fit.

if the filter canister is the same as in the Series 3 Jaguar XJ-6, try the K&N air filter. it is a lifetime filter that never has to be replaced, yes it costs more but it also lets the engine breathe better, more air gives a little better performance.
