Audi A4 Avant,. RWD or 4WD and loads to choose from.   The 3litre derv is the choice of tow barges.

Basically, I want a Lexus GS430 Estate, but that doesn’t exist, so....

 

Sub £10k (ideally £8k)

Big

Estate

Big engine, don’t mind petrol or diesel

4 wheel drive or rear wheel drive

Decent towing capacity

Auto

Not bothered about miles but must be tidy

Must have heated leather seats

Must have parking sensors from and rear, ideally cameras. 
Small wheels

Big squishy tyres

Must not be “sporty” or stand out from the crowd in any way. 


 

Go! I’m thinking E350 Estate maybe?

E350 estate is a very capable car and fits the bill of being anodyne. Munches miles with ease accelerates quicker than you think but totally without passion. I compared mine to a Mondeo I had both very efficient at long distance mileage, Mondeo was better for rear passengers.

V70 Cross Country?

 

Loved my V70 - had it for 13 years - took any amount of abuse and came back for more.

There isn't a cross country model but there is an Allroad which are 4wd and have air or hydraulic lift suspension that are bound to go faulty.  The bog standard A4 has 4wd as well as an option, pick of the range is the A4 Avant Quattro with the 3litre diesel, lots of grip and torque.

Audi S6, all very restrained, and you can get a V10

My mistake, I got the wrong quote, I thought you were quoting someone else. My apologies

That’s a shedload of car for the money. But a lot of sophisticated toys to go wrong too.
