Which cars are torque converter automatics?

I want to buy a small estate car with a torque converter automatic. What do you recommend?

The Skoda Fabia Estate is the smallest estate car you can buy but that uses a dual-clutch DSG gearbox. If you're happy to consider a slightly larger car, a Peugeot 308 SW with the excellent EAT8 gearbox could be a good option.
