This wouldn't stop me, if the PO has an excellent set of receipts proving the car has been serviced. Whatever you pay for it don't plan on driving it away cost free, at that age it's going to have needs. As for the IMS, I'd change it with each clutch with the cheapest version and you should be good to go. Frankly, I don't think my car suffered an IMS I think it was the chain tensioners, I asked what it turned out to be but never received any definitive communication. I also think these are still fairly rare events lots of guys going right to 100K problem free.
