Default Pirelli p6000s

Currently investigating potential purchase of s2000 and on questioning have discovered that this particular car has pirelli p6000s throughout. Should I be replacing these immediately?

No - I'd wait until you need new tyres.

I would imagine that would be very satisfying.

I bought my s2000 with pirelli p6000's on it. I went to get the stock tires and they said there are none in the country untill end of July. I ended up buying some 18" wheels with decent tires already on from a guy who'd just sold his S.

I conclusion I would say Pirellis are sh1t I would get rid of them ASAP but you might have a hard time finding the stock tires.
