Default Expansion / Header Tank for Jaguar XJS V12 1994

Hi Guys

I need to replace this expansion tank on my 1994

XJS V12, where can I find one? I have attached a photo of a similar one I will most likely need to flush my coolant system. It's been over 2 years but only drove the car 500 miles during that time.
Thank you

If you dont want the one from Barratts, check the marketplace. As I recall there were a couple of xjs for parts recently..... You can try searching that part number too, just to see what is listed.

Hi rgp, do you have a link to the supplier?
I refurbed mine the best I could, but would prefer to replace with stainless.

I could possibly make one or two out off stainless steel what would you pay, I’ll maybe make a few.

@jerry_hoback you mentioned Barratts, is there anything wrong with the item they are selling?
Do you know the difference between an OEM Jaguar one and a reproduction one? I would like to keep the car as original-looking as possible.
Also what other parts do you suggest I should replace while installing a newer Expansion tank?

Thank you
