Mike, you'll be fine. Four years ago I bought a Tip 3.2S for the missus. It was a 2004 car and still only has 23k on the clock and we have no plans to sell it.
She loves it, its a great car for what you've bought it for. We even did a nice run from Lincolnshire to Scotland for a wedding and it was perfect for that entertaining but not stupidly uncomfortable sports car type use.
I also have a 996.2 GT3, 500bhp Evo VI and an E60 M5 and I enjoy driving the Tip Boxster, granted its not as much fun as some of the others but I've had some fun in it, don't listen to the naysayers here.
Regards
Fred

Lots of good reasons for a Tip. My good lady was unlucky enough to be in a head on crash when she was 18 when an MGB came round a blind bend on the wrong side of the road. She doesn't limp but prolonged use of a clutch causes her a lot of pain in her leg.
She wanted a Porsche so it had to be a Tip, excellent reason for one

Price looks about right for a dealer car with warranty.
Not sure about the Savannah leather interior, though.
Doesn't appear to have upgraded audio, so budget for that as the standard fit speakers are awful - really needs an amp and better / more speakers.
Watch that plastic rear window in cold weather.
