Best estate car to fit fishing gear in?

I need a small van or estate car to put my fishing gear in. It will not do more than 1,000 miles a year. I do not want to spend more £2,500 on it but need to fit rods, an items up to seven feet long. What would you suggest?

Skoda Octavia Estate or Ford Mondeo Estate. Avoid diesel engines and automatic gearboxes at this price point, as the maintenance and repair costs will be huge for a car that's 10 or 12 years old.
