Presuming not new.

Need more info though, fuel requirement?

First thing that came to mind, Lexus CT200h.

[Stefan05]

Yeah sorry used car. Ideally real world driving at least 50+ MPG

Do you do lots of miles? Do you carry anything? Do you like comfort or sporty?

Jag XFR has quite an efficient supercharged 5.0 V8

If you want something effiecient & well spec'd then I'd say look for a diesel hybrid:

E300h AMG Line Night Edition

Another nice option is the DS5

Citroen DS5 these are really nice inside & often overlooked which is a shame as they're a good car.

If you want a diesel, then there's a lot of choice - for petrol, less so.

I actually have a CT200h (mentioned above) at the moment and it's a pretty decent, non-sporty boring car. Do make sure you read the owner reviews rather than the press ones, generally written without knowledge of how to drive a hybrid. I can't imagine that fuel economy would be hugely important at a £20k budget, but for what it's worth my CT's economy never dips below 50mpg.

Define "premium"

Hatch ?, Saloon?

any other requirements?

Go S Class! A little high miles for current shape but with some negotiating you should be able to get one sub 20 with sub 100k

Thanks zx10r helpful as always.

Hatch back or diesel. I have a Golf 2.0 bluemotion tech (14 plate) at the minute and looking to upgrade from that

[dmsims]

Mileage p.a. and journey lengths?

[Stefan05]

20k miles a year and upto 160 a day at times

Depreciation is where your costs are and not fuel use.

Your best bet would be to keep the Golf.

[ZX10R NIN]

Test drive C300 I think it'll tick the boxes.

[Shiv_P]

I'd keep the golf tbh?
