Potential 2002 Boxster Purchase

[abranovi]

Hello everyone,

I've been looking for a Boxster for some time now, and I believe that I've found a good candidate.

It's a 2002 Boxster (non s) with 90k miles

Apparently the original engine blew at 36k miles and was replaced by Porsche.

The seller recently put in an LM ims, new clutch & flywheel.

Apparently one of the spark plug tubes is leaking slightly, but as per the owner no other mechanical issues.

I think I can get the car for around 12k.

I'm going to see the car tomorrow, and if I like it, I'm planning to give a deposit pending PPI.

I found some local shops to the car with good reviews from the Porsche community- what should I expect a comprehensive PPI on one of these cars to include & cost? Is there anything that I want to be sure they will do?

Any input here is greatly appreciated. I'm relatively mechanically savvy, and can usually pick out the bad eggs, but I want to ensure that I've picked the right car and am not walking into $xxxx of repairs immediately.

Thanks!
