Should I buy a Toyota Urban Cruiser?

An elderly neighbour has offered to sell me his 2011 Toyota Urban Cruiser AWD 1.4 deisel. He doesn't drive it anymore and the mileage is only 12,000 and he wants £9000. It is in showroom condition and I am tempted but the reviews are putting me off. What do you think?

This is a rare car in the UK because the unfavourable exchange rate with the Japanese yen made it expensive. The AWD 1.4 D-4D is the best to drive: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/toyota/toyota-urba.../

But it has had some clutch and DMF problems: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/toyota/urban-cruiser...d
