Morning,
The time is coming to replace my faithful Cavalier V6 with something more modern. I like 6 cylinder cars and as I don't do many miles to worry about fuel and have good no claims bonus to keep the insurance tolerable I fancy another one. That said I don't want to pay the earth maintaining it and it must have 4 or 5 doors. I would prefer if it was R reg or newer which probably excludes German stuff from my budget (up to £7.5K)
I am favouring the Mondeo GhiaX/ST24 but also considering 406 V6. I don't really want another Vauxhall as the servicing cost of the Cavalier have been high and the Vectras that I have driven have been awful, in fact they seem a worse drive than my current car!
Has anyone got any useful advice on any of the above or indeed other cars of a similar ilk that I should be considering.
Thanks very much in advance

I rented the ST24 for a week or so last year.
Loved it. Its a bit harsh, especially with torque steer, but I really enjoyed it.

Mondeo V6 but try the Ghia as it's a bit softer. Only 25mpg though but blow most things away.

Don't rule out 5-cylinder engines. I used to think they were weird, but I love my Audi one - the sound is the next best thing to a V8...
