chris40 ◊ 2010-04-09 09:08	I think it's a V12 Jaguar, not a Daimler. It has vertical grille slats but no wavy top to the grille.
nzcarnerd ◊ 2010-04-09 10:33	Yes it is not a Daimler - definitely a series 3 Jag. Is that an Irish plate??
Sunbar ◊ 2010-04-09 10:43	No its a UK registration transferred to remove the original plate year identifier, PK - Guildford (Surrey up to 1974). In the late 1950's and early 1960's as a temporary measure, four number plus one or two letter area code registrations were used. -- Last edit: 2010-04-09 10:46:21

chris40 ◊ 2010-04-14 21:22	Well, it's not unheard of for the grille to be changed, but as the DVLA don't have a record I guess we'll have to assume it's an XJ12
G-MANN ◊ 2010-04-17 00:11	I thought the Series III XJ6 and XJ12 had the same grille. -- Last edit: 2010-04-17 00:13:38
