Ford Focus 1.6 TDCI Zetec probably the sensible pick of the bunch. Some slightly higher mileage Peugeot 508s under 5k if you need more space, 2.0 pulls nicely and they tend to be high spec. I did about 2,000 miles in one in Spain a number of years back and couldn't fault it, great for just wafting along, massive boot and huge fuel tank, very frugal.

If you had 4-5k for an estate what would you be looking at?
Want some good mpg and low tax ideally. That money seems to just about get you a more modern 1.6 diesel, are they totally awful?
