I bought one from the Jaguar shop at the factory in Coventry. They were not
especially expensive, for a special edition limited to 50. It may even
increase in value! 
There is a special engraving on the top, all engravings are in dark green
on a chrome camera.The body is covered in green connolly hide. The box is
burr walnut.
Mine is not for sale!
