What's a reliable car to replace my Ford Fairmont?

...

What is a reliable car that will get me to work and back, a trip of 500 km a week on the freeway? My BA Ford Fairmont has just given up the ghost unexpectedly and I need a replacement. My budget is limited, and would prefer used, but open to suggestions.

You could look at a later Falcon if that’s what you like. Try an FG model. If you want reliability then look at a Toyota Camry, or perhaps a smaller car like a Toyota Corolla or a Mazda3.
