Congratulations and Welcome!!
Your cars looks amazing and well cared for.
How many Km on the new Box?

My unsolicited advice it to drive the car and get a feel for it. If the clutch feels great on your drive, don't bother to change it right now. Check your oil filter...if it looks good, don't mess with IMS (and RMS) until you become better get to know the car better...just enjoy!

I bought my 2000 Box S in 2008 with no records and 75K miles. Its been amazing...best sports car Ive ever owned. Now, 9+ years later and at almost 134K miles, I have done none of the scary stuff. I may do IMS and RMS when I need a clutch....if I ever get there.

If any records are lacking, suggest doing the mileage specific maintenance suggested in your owners manual. Beyond that, consider
1. Buy an ignition switch to have on hand.
2. Flush/change fluids.
3. Drive the h_ll out of it and go from there. You'll see whats needed and what you can do.
