As previously posted, I ran into some trouble lately when the battery died on my used '91 XJ-6 and of course, there's no radio code to be found. Tried looking for a 4 digit number under the hood but everything had a '9' or '0' in it. Tried the local dealer in Vegas and they were absolutely no help and were very rude to boot. Tried Jaguar directly and they said all codes are purged after 3 years and there was no way to recover them. They were very friendly though and tried to help (I reported the Vegas dealer to them!). They did give me the dealer in California where the car was originally purchased. They were friendly also but had no record of the code number. I sent an e-mail to Alpine to see if they can help but haven't heard back yet. I may be purchasing a new radio!
