I've had a Forester S Turbo and wasn't impressed by it, they are quite small and not that quick, but i suppose you could modify it, how
about a Legacy?
Must try harder

What about something like an S-MAX. It should cover the first few points, not sure about the desirable.

As you mentioned a Freelander how about Nissan Xtrail?? I actually enjoy driving the small 4x4's, they are good to throw around, you can reach
the limit at such low speeds you can have anywhere and usually within the speed limit. My mate used to have fast cars, then got a mitsi L200 and has
had it for years as he loves the practicality, but also when he wants to play he reckons its great fun as you can slide the back everywhere.

Another mate has just picked up a 51 plate V8 300BHP Lexus LS430 for 4k, its massive and super comfy, even has back massagers in the seat. Its
definetly easy to get into to, looks decent, not so sure how much fun to drive round corners though, but fast in a straight line

bmw E39 540 Touring
Audi A6 4.2 Quattro Avant
Volvo T5 estate
Audi S4 avant
Those would be my choices, between 2 and 5k.
Edit: for some reason i thought it had to be an estate! Id still chose the estates over the saloons tho!

Cheers guys. No set budget, but certainly no more than £12.5k.
