Had my 2.7 D from new (Dec 2006), it's coming up for 100k and I still love it. The electronic handbrake has never missed a beat. If you don't run it for a couple of weeks you might find some awkward problems so I would definitely invest in a good battery charger/conditioner (CTEK 7 is what I have). Can't really say about the gearbox or it's longevity because I had a 'fault' indicated and it locked into safe mode at around 60k so I had a Jaguar re-conditioned replacement fitted, which was never as smooth as the original. However, in hindsight, this was a big, very expensive mistake, because the problem was almost certainly one of the wheel sensors, which are prone to failure (but inexpensive to have fixed) and for some reason cause DSC failure warnings, amongst others, and a gearbox fault warning.
