IMS replacements are wear items. I believe the Raby/LN one only has a 50K mile warranty for instance.
Also, at around 100K miles, you need to be mindful of the plastic chain tensioner guides failing. I know two friends who have experienced that.
Check the records. Looks for a solid recent history. Have a PPI done. Check the oil filter for metal chards.
Then its the regular potential consumables (cv joints, plugs, coil packs, shocks, aged out rubber suspension pieces, worn plastic interior parts, worn seats etc). Not sure what Tip maintenance is like- fluid flush every 50K miles?
