Jaguar further promises that those colors will never be used again on any Jags."
Didn't Jaguar also produce the missing numbers fore another model that was trashed in the Browns Lane factory. Announced a couple of years ago and all were to be hand-built (including engines) for about £1.2 million (or am I just confused?).
