Performance wise one is better off with an estate but SUVs are much cooler, larger and better looking. The cool factor is why people are as we speak bulging out 120k for a Cayenne Turbo S which is slower, more expensive and consumes a whole lot of more fuel than the more sensible choice which is E63 estate or RS6 avant.

Eastate or avant still wont have as much space inside as ML or Cayenne.

To haul the kids and dog around when you need to, then go humbling the neighbor in his Cayenne when you don't.
