Oil in cooling system??

#1

2001 turbodiesel Ghia 66,000 miles
collected after full service and MOT.
Passed OK but then given the bad news!
There is oil in the cooling system water which is coming from the oil
cooler.
Remedy - replace cooler and all hoses and flush out system with detergent.
Cost estimate £900
Advised to consider getting rid very soon.
Your opinions and suggestions appreciated.
