I had a 2000 XJR that was actually a great car. The timing chain tensioner issue is potentially fatal, as is the Nikasil cylinder walls eroding. I don't recall the year that Nikasil ceased to be an issue, but it's in that 2000 timeframe.

That car on a good day would maybe bring $4k in mint condition. Sat for YEARS? Better get it cheap.
