You can get a 10 plate with acceptable miles for less than 6K. Servicing costs are a bit higher than the Ford but they're pretty bombproof providing they have FSH and have been looked after.

Mazda 6 is another one worth looking at.
A quick check shows one 10 plate with 113000 miles for £5508 but it's 80 miles from me.
There is a 09 reg with 58k at £6000
A 57 reg with 63k for £5495 maybe a better bet

One issue is the Lexus is saloon. We often filled the Mondeo hatch so maybe boot space would be an issue.

Looks nice though.
