In the US, if you have a MY 2008 it will have an IMS. Statistics say you'll have a 1% chance of IMS failure with that generation of IMS bearing.
However...
Doesn't the UK have a different system of classifying model years? They have a 2005 Cayman IIRK, which the US doesn't have. So maybe you have what's considered a MY 2008 in the UK and it might be what we'd consider a 2009 in the US if it was produced at the proper time. That would make it a 987.2 version, which would contain the IMS-less 9A1 engine.
Show us a pic of your console center stack. Does it have silver panels surrounding the radio and HVAC controls or is it black? That would be the easiest way to tell if you have a 987.1 (IMS) or a 987.2 (no IMS).
