Thanks for the suggestions Opus but to be honest I'm the process of selling and I just want to get the car roadworthy and through the MOT...

Please don't pass a problem onto another Porsche buyer. We see this happen over and over again with these cars and its just not right.

I'm not passing the problem on but I'm not putting in a brand new engine just to sell it and not get my money out of it. It will be better than when I had it as the engine will have 20k less miles on it and I will be telling the buyer exactly what happened. It's then up to them, as it is up to anyone buying a boxster, whether or not they pay to get the IMS fix done...

Do you have a buyer lined up already?

If you did it may be a good option for the buyer to make a choice if he wants to pay the difference for Clutch/IMS while the mechanic has it apart for the swap.
