If you can stretch your budget to £1200 i got a spare R reg 2.5 V6 Vectra auto hatchback here that i'm temporarily using until mine is sorted. Not the best on fuel for a trip to the shops (although a lot more economical than your old one!), but has a very large boot.. Only done 85k with a new engine fitted by Vauxhall 20k ago.

Yip financial write off....repairs been more than 40% of the cars value. Still not a bad buy for what you want it to do!!
