If reliability is top of the list, Civic 1.8 seems to come highly recommended if you can get on with the ride quality.

Otherwise A4 1.8TFSI is worth a look - €636 on cc or €570 on new system.
Skoda Octavia/Superb with the 1.8 TSI is also €570
If you have a better budget, as Dergside says the choice opens up when you go up the years a bit - you'll have to go to the UK though.
Something like an IS300h should fit the bill:
