Can anyone recommend a suitable “wafter” that is fit for the AWFUL UK roads, under £3k?

- big

First thing that came to mind was an old-ish Merc S-Class. Doesn't need to be a high spec (the low spec ones aren't exactly spartan) and could be the 320CDI. I would fancy it as a less troublesome beast than eg a Jaguar XF or anything else Jag for that matter.

The problem with this kind of car is unless you deliberately seek out something before March 2006 you could end up with £760/year tax - so beware of this and check each car you consider.

W212 on 16" wheels and standard suspension. It's fabulous.
