With your slim budget you're looking at a 2010/2011 model, which will have on average around 150,000 km. It will be hard to find anything under that sort of mileage. At that I would be loathe to suggest a European brand, given that repairs can be expensive. Having ruled out the Tiguan I would suggest a Honda CR-V or a Mazda CX-5.
We received the same response when we approached VW on the matter, it seems the company is washing its hands of the problem, saying in effect that it's not theirs alone, that it affects other car makers and makers of other products as well. Disappointing when you've got a car with blotchy marks all over it. From what we understand the marks are a result of titanium dioxide that have been used in sunscreens over the last few years. It's uncertain which is the best way to fix it once it's occurred, some say buff it out, others say used a citrus-based cleaner. I would consult a detailer near you to find out what they do to fix it, or you could contact our paint expect, Graeme Cuthbert, on 0422 444 335. This should also serve as a warning for everyone with a car built after about 2007, wash your hands, and your kid's hands, after using sun cream and before touching the paintwork on your car.
