New Owner!!!

Hi all,

New owner - new member - first post:

Just bought a 2001 2.7 Boxster 2 days ago and couldnt be happier!!! Was in amazing condition with 80,000 miles on the clock and I purchased for £5100.

Have always wanted a Boxster and I finally own one so over the moon.

My first question:

Obviously I did a lot of research before buying and the one that popped up everywhere was this IMS failure. I thought long and hard about it and decided to not let it scare me off. Now, do you think its worth me having the bearing replaced with an upgraded version or take my chances? Basiclly what would you do? Ive heard people having it done when they replace the clutch but without being an expert, the clutch feels like it has plenty of life in it yet. Bites nice and low.

Have been reading a lot on this forum the past couple of weeks and found it so helpful!!!

Thanks
