What are your requirements? I’ve looked at loads.
Avensis has a reputation of being incredibly dull, but typical Toyota reliability.
Accords are not as cheap as some people make out, and the petrols appear to be pretty thirsty – with the auto boxes not even being that quick.
Mondeos are recommended a lot, but I can’t get past the Ford reliability myself.
Mazdas seem relatively rare.
Volvo V50s are basically Fords, and not massively cheap.
Saab a little cheaper to buy in some instances for what they are – but reliability?
BMW 3 or 5 series is worth a look – smaller petrol engines reportedly have some issues, but the 6 cylinder 2.5 or 3.0 is really no more thirsty than a 2.4 Accord.
Subaru Forester / Legacy, though again the big engines can be thirsty.
Octavia.
Etc…
If reliability and practicality was my main concern, I think I’d go Avensis. Maybe an Accord fr a touch more class.
But for something more fun, 6 cylinder BMW, Forester XT, Volvo v50 T5, Octavia VRS…
