What's the most reliable used estate for £10k?

What are the best estate cars for around £10k that you can get? We want something that is reliable, comfy and with a few toys. We have a 2014 Golf GT TDI at the moment that we would replace.

A Honda Civic Tourer would be a good choice. It has a huge boot and is available with reliable diesel engines. Also consider a Skoda Octavia (or Superb, if you'd prefer something bigger), or a Kia Cee'd Sportswagon - the latter will have the remainder of its original seven-year warranty, provided it's been serviced correctly.
