Is a rebuild inevitable?

[KenInOntario]

I am looking to buy an S1 2000 Year for export. But I don't have access to the same level of expertise here as in the UK so any car I buy I have in my mind needs to have had a recent rebuild.

Is this necessary or am I worrying to much? Friend's in the trade in the UK say the Tuscan engine is notorious for needing to be rebuilt after not very many miles.

Some solid advice is greatly appreciated
