Personally put off because it's black and a diesel, two things I'd never really want.
Objectively.. yes, it is cheap. There's not much more to go on, with such poor / limited photos.
I'd expect the interior to be rough. It'll need tyres. It'll likely need suspension work like mine. I'd guess the D5 is fairly tough being a diesel, so you may get away with that a bit, and the M66 is I understand quite solid?
Honestly I'd budget at least 4k to bring it to decent condition, even doing all the work yourself. There's some value perhaps in the 'box and pedals etc for an easy conversion of another XC..
Looking back I would follow
@Philia_Bear's wisdom and just get a good V8, it's the one to have. It's just a shame they didn't build them for later model years AFAIK
