And is there something wrong with jaguar XF’s they seem cheap ?
Their Diesel engines are pretty poor.

I like cars that are underdogs and misfits.
I’d have this in a heartbeat if I was allowed it:

One of these would be fine as more ‘steady’ daily though.

At 24 something classy like a BMW 335i touring or an M3 would be a serious ride and enough to show the wannabies a clean pair of heels. Extreme you-know-what magnet too.
I love the E92 M3 saloon. It looks prettier than the 2 door coupe but I really really want an Alpina B3.
The Lexus ISF mind needs a look at: 400hp and 5.0 V8.

Low mileage example for the right money. A classic luxury head-turner. Woo her in leather clad comfort. Stunningly powerful and refined V8. Offered at £7500
Golf R32 or BMW 135i
My car gets used for everything from going a few hundred miles down the motorway to getting its seats folded up and used as a work vanI would suggest the BMW 130i M sport, too. Classy and plenty fast enough.
Can the OP give us some background on what else he does in life besides going to work and maybe we can formulate something more accurate for him?
What do you think of Xdrive BMW’s there’s a few 320s in my budgetI would suggest the BMW 130i M sport, too. Classy and plenty fast enough.

Must be able to cope with rough farm lonings and be half decent in snow I’ve only ever had cheap hatchbacks that can take abit of abuse which is why I’m putting more thought into what will be my fancier car
Just played with the trip computer on my 1.4 ibiza for the first time I’ve always thought it’s a bit gutless and needs abit of throttle on hills and to get going it’s only averaged 29mpg
You probably mean 9-3X. The 2.0T is a great engine. Then there's the TurboX model which is estate or sedan with 2.8T V6 engine. The 2.0 is more reliable, but the 2.8 will be more fun. Plus the 2.0 can be converted to bi-fuel easily.It's only the 2.0 4 cylinder engine so it won't be particularly lairy or fast.
Xdrive the jury is out for me, I would sooner an Audi or Subaru if you needed AWD.
No good worrying about mpg if you are only doing modest miles per year, there is no saving to be had, particularly since you are only getting 29mpg from a 1.4 so you must be a throttle monster like I was.
If you are going down rough farm tracks then the Scoob/Volvo angle is getting larger. Saab also do a jacked up estate car with a monster petrol engine.
