Clarification; The article states that the Jaguar Mk X long held the record as the widest production Jaguar ever built. I may be wrong, but I believe that it is still the widest ever production Jaguar, as well as the widest production car ever built in the UK. The article also states that the Mk X was the last Jaguar with the proper wooden dashboard and the XJ dash was plastic with wooden fillets. This may be true of most XJ's but the series 1 did have the full burr walnut dash with trademark row of centralised dials & switches. Later dashboards fell foul to the laws of ergonomics.

Sorry Charles my typo, 'eronomics' meant ergonomics obviously as I'm sure that economically it would have been most cost effective to leave it unchanged. Chris Glynneath 212.32.80.88 ( talk) 14:23, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
The Jaguar XJ220 was wider. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.153.4.126 ( talk) 20:32, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
It was my understanding that the Mk X/420G was the widest UK car ever built (up until the arrival of the XJ220), but this article neither confirms or contradicts that. The statement "until the arrival in 1992 of the low-slung XJ220, the Mark X stood as one of the widest production Jaguars ever built." bears no scrutiny. 92.21.5.38 ( talk) 08:46, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
