Honda Accord V6L ~ 1999-2003. Search for for one that has been looked after. Even @ 200k, they are still very strong in the motor. Weaknesses in the gearbox are common, though may have been done.

Common cheap reliable cars: WRX, EVO, Honda VTi-Rs, Nissans coupes, Suzuki Swift, Celica BMW 3 series (bit more dosh), Golf, Subies
Something different: Galant, Saab turbo
 
It's hard when there's no specific preference lol (maybe what you want the thread to be)

Celica GT4 ST185. They're cheap these days. Can get a mechanically decent car with faded paint or something for that price. Don't expect to buy into perfection for that budget.

I would go the BMW 3 series, BMW's brake and handle really well, my X5 pulls up faster than my MR2 and I have a brake upgrade.
 
Also they have higher safety ratings so better protection for your family.
