Default 2005/6 XKR Tools, keys, books

I have started to look around for a 2005-2006 XKR and was wondering what that generation was supplied with as far as tools (beyond tire changing?), keys (probably a set of two?), and owner's handbooks (just one volume or more?) went. I tried to do some forum searching but could not find much info.

Anyone have one of these since new, and/or can otherwise vouch as to what came originally with the car?

you're supposed to get three keys, two are black and are all-purpose, one is green - the valet. Two key fobs (remotes), a owners manual, a separate 'navigation' manual if yours has it, and I've even seen a separate 'maintenance' book in a 2002 xk8. My 2003 had both the general user manual information, combined with the maintenance items.

And don't forget the all important tow hook. It seems like a lot of people are missing them.

Thanks for the replies, guys. All that remains is my question on what tools (if any) the 2005-2006 XKR should come with. Or are those pretty much a figment of the past? On my 2009 335i, I had to source for myself all the stuff that BMW left out (in '09 they still used a tool tray with depressions in the plastic for "stuff", but even the new car came with empty slots).

There is a Toolkit listed in the optional Accessory catalog (2003): http://matt.zenfolio.com/xk-accessor...l-version-.pdf
