Could you recommend a reliable, premium estate?

Please can you suggest a reliable, medium or large estate, preferably automatic. I don't mind if it has a bit of luxury.

If buying used, I'd recommend the Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate (built from 2010-2016). It's hugely practical and was rated as one of the UK's best cars for reliability in our latest Satisfaction Index: www.honestjohn.co.uk/honest-john-satisfaction-inde.../

A stylish and newer alternative would be the Volvo V90. The cabin is wonderfully refined and standard equipment levels are very high across the range: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/volvo/v90-2016
