I had a Focus and am now seeking a used petrol vehicle, preferably £8k to £12k but could go more if need be. I do 8000 miles a year that includes the daily city commute and monthly 200 mile motorway trips. We are a family of three with a young child but carry quite a lot of luggage.

I looked after the Focus and it has been grand. I could go for another Focus, but ideally I would favour something with a little more room prestige and comfort. But primarily it needs to be safe and reliable. What might be best? Could even be an estate, SUV, bigger car.
