All the above posters make sense. Read as much as you can about ims bearing and the consequences of it failing. I was born in the Uk andl left when I was 19 so I am somewhat familiar how u feel. If I lived in the UK still I would likely own an mx5 miata
but prior to buying my 2001 Box base I owned a Miata but it is not the same. Miata cheap to maintain, better gas mileage etc However the Box is way more car, more power but also more pounds/$$$$ to maintain.

I have IMS Guardian installed . I spend about one thousand pounds a year on maintenance. Do your research on anything Boxster/ims etc. Get a prepurchase inspection done prior to buying a Box. Look at more than one to get a comparison.
Good luck with your search. Enjoy. Let us know what u decide
