I'm sure the 2nd hand one will be fine; just check its clean by spraying some suitable cleaner into it (WD40 will do), and just make sure the inside rotating valve is going against light spring pressure. Don't forget to clean the throttle, butterfly and vacuum holes and then read and reset/clear the ODB; that's important.
My 1993 960 has done around 380,000 miles and still on the original ICV....just have to keep it clean!
Good luck.
