Which cars have a low boot lip and enough space for a big old dog?

I have a big dog (a 10-stone Leonberger) and we're expecting it to have rear leg problems in later life. I'm looking for a reliable car with a low boot lip and a big enough cargo space to accommodate the donkey dog. What would you recommend? Our budget is around £11,000.

We'd recommend a Skoda Superb Estate. You'll be able to get the latest (2015-) model within budget – it's simply huge and has that all-important low boot lip. Alternatively, a Vauxhall Insignia Sports Tourer is similarly cavernous and represents good value for money.
