I just have an admittedly irrational hatred for these requests - if you want an intentionally boring car, just buy one - we can't help!

I'm sure Broccers said there was an 'ignore' button

If you’re not interested in what you get, Lexus and Toyota keep pushing “relax” on the radio where if you get it serviced at a main dealer you get a 12 month warranty- could be something to consider?

To join in the thread in a more positive manner, I've entered your criteria into AT:

Estate
Petrol
>2L
<£10k
<6years old
trade sale
<50k miles?

You're getting a Mazda 6 from Aberdeen or a cat S mini clubman.

Play nicely.

It’s clear who wears the pants in this relationship.

I think the mini has gone... Well at least that makes this whole process easier!

I know its a lease but dirt cheap and bigger than the focus.

That's excellent value. Probably won't suit Duncs' mileage requirements but worth checking the price per mile for extra miles.

Seeing cars in that sector with 1.0 litre engines still boggles my mind a bit.

Same spec as my boring white goods car. It’s not a bad drive and can be quite quick across country but does try to understeer easily. Recent long drive got 55mpg, so decently economical. Would advise the 120hp version though, gets a 6 speed gearbox, a little more go, and the engine revs a bit easier
