Well the Etis info for my XK (20.09.2006) also says "Marketing Level 1", so I don't think that means too much.

My memory may fade a tad, but I seem to recall that Marketing Level 1 did indeed indicate it was a car manufacturer for the US (left hand drive) market. Not sure where I found that info, but I asked about the term here years ago....

mine is on a 55 plate manufactured on 18/10/2005 with VIN B00084

it was used by Jaguar to promote the model and was shipped to capetown where some of the photos in my profile were taken. It is one of the few with adaptive radar cruise control on it I believe.

I thought 84 signified it was the 84th car built?
