I can highly recommend a mazda6 sport diesel (143ps) Ive had mine, a 136ps for 4 years now. its done a nearly 150k now and never missed a beat ever.....

go for a sport and get 6 speed box, climate, cruise, 6 disc in dash bose hifi with factory sub! etc..... and the boot is massive!

iI used to change my cars annualy as company cars, but since ive had this one i cant find anything to better it!

But that is just my opinion!
