I got 'persuaded' by wife & daughter to get a Toyota Avensis years ago (05 plate, still got it). Wasn't too pleased as I wanted a Mazda 6 . . . but it's been a cracking car, well impressed with it
No idea of prices, worth looking at I reckon . . boot space is . . . 3 bed semi size LOL
edit: no heated windscreen on mine, no idea of later models
