Leased of his troubles

I have a leased Audi A6 Avant, which is due for changing. Its a diesel 2.7 and has been very good. I do about 25k miles a year, am self-employed and need to lease another estate car to do the same job as the Audi. The A6 is expensive so I would like to spend less but I need a decent car to keep up with my competitors. Any clues please? Not keen on the BMW image although I admire their engineering. Love Subarus and Mercs. Fords scare me quality-wise, but maybe that’s misplaced. Bit of a jungle really and I would appreciate your views and opinions.

Excellent economy. Sensible price.
