The FAQs say that Jaguar part nr AJ811788 is the same as the Vantage one. I’ve ordered one of those (a Quinton Hazell one) and it has a different make up to the one shown in the FAQs https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JAGUAR-XK8R-X100-4-2-Co... . In particular, it doesn’t have the lugs to locate onto the thermostat housing and comes as a one piece stat rather than the multi piece shown in the pic on the FAQs.

Anyone have a link for the correct part or know whether the QH one will fit before I strip the old one out ?

Cheers

Jonny

Is it the same as the 4.3? If so, I got AJ811788 from Britishparts.co.UK a couple of years ago.
