Thanks for the heads up on the color identification. I found out that it is alpine metallic. Looks like they only put it on 2000 models, but i am not sure. I am a big fan of that color now though, looks fantastic.

Good news among all the maintenance issues. Recently purchased my first Jaguar Stype, 4.0 2000 model. Gorgeous car white leather interior and i guess they call the color "british racing green"? correct me if that is wrong. In any case i love the color and the paint has survived 15 years and looks amazing after a few coats of wax.

She had only 60,000 miles on her when i bought for $5000 , not a bad deal and she runs great. One of the best cars i have had on the highway, soooo smooth. 

Hoping the old gal lasts for years to come. I know the s-type takes grief for its retro look but i think it is unique and will be prized years down the road.
