Mazda6, Peugeot 407 or Volkswagen Passat?

I have €5,000 to €7,000 to spend on a car that'll be good for commuting 100km per day. Currently looking at 1. Mazda 6 2. Peugeot 407 3. Volkswagen Passat - all diesels. Looking for something reliable with decent spec and low running costs/insurance (I'm 24!). I've read about some issues with Mazda diesels around this price range, also unsure of Peugeot's reliability and the Passats seem to be cursed with high mileage at this price point. Any advice on these or other cars you'd recommend would be appreciated.

Thanks.
