Default Chains/tensioners on 2002 XKR

Hello People,
I did a fair amount of research before buying my used 2002 XKR. It is the 4.2 litre version and I have read that by the time this engine was being produced the tensioner problems had been resolved and the engine was pretty 'bomb-proof' as one review suggested.

Am I right to be confident or should I get the tensioners checked out? No apparent problems so far other than a failed ignition pack which was replaced. Engine sounds sweet at the moment.

Thanks for any advice,

All 4.2's have the new tensioners.

Relax.
