Have so far narrowed the choice down to the following:
VW Golf R estate - good availability, good reviews, overall my first choice
Seat Leon Cupra estate - good reviews like the Golf, but availability seems limited 2nd hand
Audi S4 Avant - my current view is it's a pricier substitute for the Golf, but despite larger exterior dimensions seems to have less interior space than the Golf
Audi RS4 Avant - as above but faster and more pricey
Audi RSQ3 - currently the outsider but reviews are good and engine seems highly rated and characterful. I know the Q3 isn't an estate but it kind of fits the mould as it's relatively small for an SUV
Car is going to be used daily so running costs are a consideration
However having said that, I do keep looking at 80k mile 10 year old RS6's but that would probably be an incredibly foolish road to travel down. It's only a big estate car with a V10 Lamborghini 570bhp engine afterall
Any experience of the above cars welcome
The car will replace my M2 which isn't practical enough for my needs anymore. Another option is to keep the M2 and get an old auto estate for under £5k (like a V70), but initial thought is to replace the M2 and get something relatively new / modern / reliable / fast
