A cautionary note: I bought a cheap (ha!) Boxster that I knew had engine problems. On disassembly, I found the tensioner pads had disintegrated, which resulted in two bad outcomes. The rear timing chain broke a link, and even worse, the bits blocked the oil pickup and starved the mains. Better to address this early than later!
