If you want a similarly prestige, similarly priced, similarly powerful car, with a similar amount of space, luxury & comfort whats wrong with a decent estate?

You could have the Audi A6 Avant V10, or the Mercedes E63 AMG Estate, or a BMW M5 Estate:, far cooler than a 4x4 and you wont get people thinking the person behind the wheel is a wannabe WAG with an inky dinky dog in their handbag on the passenger seat when they see it

That's an easy one to answer as the rs6 I borrowed last weekend with a view to purchase got stuck less than 20feet onto the entrance of my inlaws farm/small holding and had to be towed out by our old range rover (awesome car on the road mind you )

Thanks for the replies guys.

Hearing more tales of issues on the sport's puts me off them a little especially as I'm not in a position to buy new at the moment (was looking around 08-09 plates) but depends on what sort of warranty is available.

I think il try a cayenne out to see if the driving experience is good enough to outweigh its looks ( it could be a bit like biffing a fat chick, not great to look at but a whole load of fun with the lights off...... Sort of).
