What should I replace my old Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate with?

My Mercedes-Benz E270 CDI Estate is still going strong with 275,000 miles on the clock since 2003. When the time comes to replace it I will need less load space and also expect a reduction in annual mileage. However, I still prefer an estate and would like to maintain the spaciousness and comfort for me as driver. My wife finds it a big old barge to drive so need to find something that she feels okay with. I am not wedded to a particular marque or bothered about buying new. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It sounds like your E-Class has provided excellent service. How about something still premium but a little smaller, like a Mercedes-Benz C-Class or BMW 3 Series Touring? If you're not fussed about the badge, we'd recommend a Skoda Superb.

Fantastic depth of quality, lovely cabin ambience and improved interior space, very refined, quiet and composed – even the four-cylinder diesels.
Boot capacity is massive. Limousine-like levels of passenger space. Refined driving experience favours comfort. Tremendous value for money.
Strong engine line-up. More powerful models are guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Handles very well. Interior quality is first class.
