Hi Chaps

This is my first post, so please bear with me.
I've always hankered after a boxster and finally got my 986 S 2003 with just under 20,000 miles. I haven't stopped smiling since! My excitement has been mellowed somewhat after reading the demise of so many engines following the failure of the IMS. Having trawled the forums there seems to be a real divergence of opinion as to what action to take to avoid the calamity of engine destruction.
My example has had the following services

08/03/2004 1,884 OPC
02/09/2005 4,667 OPC
05/09/2006 5,979 OPC
07/07/2008 8,639 OPC
2010 off road stored in barn for 12 months
30/09/2011 14,779 OPC
Purchased August 2013 19,900 -

The engine sounds fine and the clutch is light, probably as it should be.
My dilemma is now whether i need to have the dreaded bearing looked at.
I can ask OPC to carry out a stereoscopic test to check if they can hear anything amiss, or I can spend inordinate amounts having both the IMS and RMS replaced which would of course provide piece of mind, but break the bank.
Th car will never do more than 5K a year and is garaged. I can do the oil changes every 6 months or so, but without the bearing change I will never know whether the low mileage and lack or use has deteriorated the bearing with the result that a broken engine is merley an inevitability.
What is your advice in my situation?
I dearly want to use the car as it is meant to be driven but fear any hard use will bring about its demise.
In my situation and given that I would like to keep the car for some time what is the general consensus please.

Very grateful to hear your comments. Thanks
