Jaguar is putting the first production XJ up for auction to try and raise £1million for the NSPCC.

Geoff Cousins, managing director of Jaguar UK said: “To help give more children the support they need, Jaguar, a long-standing supporter of the NSPCC, is giving away the very first customer ready car to be produced.

“This is a unique chance to own the first XJ, help raise funds for the Child's Voice appeal – and ensure even more calls are answered."

The competition runs to 25 November, with the winner being announced on 1 December. To enter, visit www.jaguar.co.uk/nspcc

Surely it's to be Raffled not auctioned?
The CAR magazine site also says "auctioned" so I guess the mistake comes from the Press Release. Surely, Autocar journalists don't just recycle Press Releases?
