Best Executive car for 15k?

Whats a similar Mondeo given that Ford do not offer an engine above a 4 cylinder diesel in the Mondeo?

I can't find many, if any, 2 year old Volvo V60 D5s for less than £15000. There are a few which cost slightly more but they are not as well equipped. Active Cruise would be a must for me if I was driving that much.

I think people are on the right lines here.

Either a Mondeo or Volvo (S60/S80) the highest spec possible.

Active cruise would be lovely but surely not standard on any of the trims? Got to be hard to find.

I vote this Volvo purely for it's colourful seats - http://www.crossroads-garage.co.uk/volvo-s60-d3-se-in-sheffield-south-yorkshire-3146145

I'd have an accord over the Mondeo, or even a Skoda Superb.

They don't differentiate on size anymore and havent done for a few years. Especially with cars getting bigger and bigger every year.

the 3 series was their overall executive car of the year and the 5 series was the executive car cost more than 30k. So it's split up on price now.

And who needs a bigger car the a 3 series anyway?

And I could be bothered finding the "right" car but surely with several pages of 3 series with auto box under 2 years old ranging from 11k to 16k there must be a decent spec one out there which fits the OP's budget?

Better spec for you? http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classif...radius/1501/postcode/dl120jr/page/1?logcode=p

Granted it's slightly too old though

Obvious 3 series driver is obvious.

Why are you raging because you car isn't a proper executive car :confused:
