Is the Mondeo problematic?

I am looking at a Mondeo. It's an 07-plate 2.0 diesel estate, but my garage was telling me the older models have big problems with injectors and dual mass fly wheel. My current car is a Skoda Octavia 1.9 on a 53-plate and I can't afford a new common rail Octy. The car is used for towing caravans and trailers, trouble is my heart is set on a Mondeo.

These problems have not yet fed through to me:

They were common on the previous model, which may be what they were talking about.
