Default 2002 xk convertible

Looking to buy an XK convertible. What are the major differences from 96-06? What are the major issues to look for in a used vehicle like this?

The MAJOR issues are:

1) Timing chain tensioners.. 97-2002 had a few upgrades along the way... Not having them replaced could have been a ticking time bomb.

2) Throttle body..

3) Water pump and housing.

4) Regular maintenance. These cars love to be pampered.

If you know how to send me a private message, I may be able to hook you up with a nice convertible...and needs none of the items we described.
