Personally I would NOT drive it. Get the turbo repaired/replaced! Modern vehicles have engine sensors that will cause even more running problems as they aren't detecting the turbo doing it's job.
Diesels will run without a turbo but they are usually ridiculously slow and really really struggle to accelerate.This is especially true on smaller diesel engines like those you get in cars and smaller vehicles. I had a turbo fail on a 2.0 litre diesel engine and with my foot hard down it took me well over a minute to hit 50mph, and that was before I got to any hills.
The turbo injectors will be a different setup compared to the non-turbo injectors. The injectors for the turbo need to run at a slightly higher pressure and open for slightly longer to compensate for the denser amount of air in the cylinder.
Running turbo injectors will most likely affect your fuel mixture causing it to run rich.
if you remove the turbo from that car, the car will not run very well because the computer is setup to run with a turbo device, it need the air flow to force the fuel where it need to go. after removing the turbo you are going to have fuel issue, stay running, be fore you buy it go to the owner ask if they would mind if you or them disconnect the belt from the turbo charger and restart the car, see how well it runs, try and drive it, if every thing works okay, than buy the car and leave the belt off the charger.
It should only start in P and N. Is this a 4 wheel drive? Check the transfer case if it is. If not check to make sure torque converter bolts were put in. If they weren't it won't do anything.
