Marktplaats using XJS as a prop

Not a exiting post but I noticed lately the Dutch Marktplaats is using a XJS as a prop on their TV commercial and online marketing. So I made this screenshot for the records only.

Apparently I was not only the one checking on the number plates for these cars. This link identified the correct plate numbers:

Dutch roadtax

 A bit late but just for the records. Last month I received a letter from the Dutch tax authority. And in January my XJS will become roadtax free by January 2024. Hurray!
