Need a large car with soft suspension - any ideas?

I am a 6.6 feet tall and need a large car with a soft ride. I have £8000 to spend and want something with lots of space in the back, but dislike French cars. What do you recommend?

Limousine-like amounts of rear legroom. Clever dual tailgate means it's both a hatch and a saloon. GreenLine model is very economical. A lot of car for the money.
