Thought I would give you some ideas...

Mondeo ST TDCi - Needs to be higher mileage for 5k though.
X Type 2.0d - Not particularly sporty to look at but chassis as above
MG ZT CDTi - BMW diesel engine, slightly dodgy quality.

Good luck

Sorry haven't been around much..

I was looking at the Mondeo as my dad has been driving Mondeo for the last 15 years with no issues

Likethe idea of the tractor, insurance should be cheaper LOL
