4 XJ220's in Australia.

2 x silver, brought in by Jaguar themselves and sold new in Aust. Road registered, etc. One was crashed badly in QLD. Repaired. The other one is in Melbourne, used to be driven daily. The owner bought it at auction in Sydney about 6 years ago. I missed out on the auction (found out about it) 2 days after. It only had 5,000km and it sold for only $235k :(

1 x silver - Fox collection - UK plates, unregistrable here

1 x burgundy - just arrived recently, PI.

Wow. Only thought there was the Fox and Private import one.

Was the crashed one repaired locally or factory?

No idea. I would assume locally.

As blunt as I may sound, I say this with all empathy, you missed out on a modern bargain considering the 180k+ euro they're selling for on the international markets, and that's without Australia's LCT/GST. But, you never know, owners come and go, but their cars remain, maybe another will show up for sale soon, good luck.

You're lucky you've got someone to teach you, all I've got is the crappy internet. I didn't mean 300 owners in Australia.
