There some items that fail due to age... rubber items like belts dry out and tyres may have flat spots or cracking if it has not been driven on a regular basis. As a second car obviously it was driven occasionally so I wouldn't worry about it. If it had been sitting for years then you have dry gaskets and seals to worry about. There is nothing to be "scared of". All of the tales of woe and desperation are mostly a Range Rover urban legend.
I inherited a 95 LWB special ordered by a family member. It was mostly driven in a dry environment in Eastern Washington with occasional trips in winter over Stevens Pass. It did sit for 9 months clearing up the estate and none my Aunt's kids want the "old Rover". It was always garage kept and when I brought her home I rolled over 28K miles in 2006, 11 years old. The only issue I had during my care was leaky valve cover gaskets. EAS was still operational, heater core was perfect and A/C was still ice cold. All due to over maintenance and detailed care.
Sounds like a similar situation with your 2006. You may have a few age related glitches, but the benefits of a low mileage, perfectly maintained rig far out weigh any fears you may have.
