Thought about it quite seriously but decided on an F11 BMW 530d M Sport Touring which I have to say is epic. I have 2 young kids and a puppy and require the ability to carry bikes, child seats and the like. I went for a 2011 car from Sytner as it seemed to have reached the bottom of it's depreciation curve. It's very different from my Mini!
I tried to justify a QP daily but even my man maths calculator couldn't compute it. I couldn't find a 530d for less than £14k (and that was north of 100k miles) and paid £16.5 for a one owner, main dealer car with warranty etc and 45k miles. I'm really very pleased with it indeed. If you know my name, you should get the plate.
