Buying a small/medium size used car

At present I own a 2000 Ford Focus estate which has easy flat access to boot space.

I have back problems from time to time. I am going to change my car for a used small/medium sized vehicle. I would rather not buy another estate, are there any saloon or hatch back cars that do not have a lip to lift items over to place in the boot, i.e flat easy access like an estate?
