Station Wagon - Freelander 2.5 - reliability

[petrolhead76]

Guys seen a 2001 (51 plate) station wagon freeland 2.5 v6 (GS) which looked like it could do the job for the family as a work trojan (has full service history).

I've heard bad things about this motor in terms of reliability (blown engines, failed gearboxes etc.) - is this true?

This one has only done 40k miles and is a one owner car.

Should I avoid or go ahead and purchase ?
