Default What are car people buying for 50 to 60k these days?

I've never spent that much myself before, but here I am able to. (and probably wanting 2nd hand)

I have had lots of dual cab utes etc, and really cant be bothered with something like that. Our other car is a VW Touareg which is great for towing and holidays etc.

I do about 25 to 30,000 a year.

I'm thinking:

Ex cop 2019 G30 530d MSport with about 100 to 120,000km (5.7 secs to 100)
2016ish Audi A6 or A7 biturbo diesel (5.1 sec to 100) with 50,000km
2016ish Audi SQ5 with the same engine as above with about the same km.
These are good choices I think.

Or maybe an E92 M3 manual... which would use twice the fuel, but not depreciate so much if at all. But have about 130,000km.

I dont want a dual clutch car of any type, just dont trust them. All the diesels above are 8 speed strong normal autos.

Has anyone had any of these?

I had a look at a 530d and it sure has all the technology, but the leather was really poor compared to what I'm used to in our Touareg (higher end version). Was surprised by that being a 100k car!

Any other suggestions?
