Based on what I know, it's best to reference Pantone's Lab numbers, which are found in Illustrator's or Photoshop's swatch palettes (or panels, as they are called now).

Yes, the exact numbers do slightly change from one version to the next, but as long as you refer to the latest published values, you will be fine.

And it is indeed true that there is a certain level of inconsistency in appearance between Pantone swatchbooks or fans, even within the same round of release.

But as I say, refer to the Lab values (for the solid coated edition, usually) and you'll be ahead of the Pantone color game.
