I bought a 2000 S with 25K miles about a month ago. It's been perfect so far, and a joy to drive. I just installed an IMS Guardian and have been replacing standard items (filters, belts, etc.) since getting it.
I'd get a PPI done for sure, and if you buy it, plan on replacing wear items and other components that might have become brittle over time. Personally, I'd opt for the IMS Guardian versus doing the bearing at this point.
When they do the PPI, make absolutely certain that you see the used filter. Good luck - it sounds as though you've got an incredible find.
