This page shows 64 price lists from my collection, giving a near complete coverage over the production life of the DS420. A handful from the early years 1969-1975 are still missing, and one is (maybe) missing around August-November 1978. All images are clickable to see the full content of each price list.
Sir John Egan was Jaguar's CEO from April 1980 until the takeover by Ford in March 1990. In his book "Saving Jaguar" (recommended!) on page 29 he explains how the Government had imposed price regulations, but "if price increases were all carried out on the same day, a company could vary them around the allowance". This explains why the dates on most price lists for all BLMC models are synchronised, and my observation of a large variety of BLMC price lists offered on eBay over many years supports my estimate of 5-10 missing Limousine ones between 1969 and 1975 and none in later years.
I would very much love to obtain any of the missing ones, and I will pay a very good price. Alternatively I can offer other price lists from my extensive collection of duplicates, possibly closer to the date of your own car, or a choice of items from my DS420 collection in general.
