Bye bye SQ7, hello RS4. From one rapid Audi to another, a seven-seat SUV to a family wagon. Spot the new dad. But bear with us there is method to making me the unofficial Audi correspondent. SUVs are fast becoming the default replacement for saloons and hatches and estates. They are the Swiss Army knives of the car world that also happen to be bang on trend. Fortunately, not everyone wants a command" driving position or to sacrifice their centre of gravity just to keep up with the neighbours.If you need space but also speed, an estate is just so much better-looking, so much better to drive and so much cooler than an SUV. Or at least that"s what I have engrained on my brain. The question is, will it be a matter of weeks before I"m yearning for the SQ7 back? Or is the fast estate still king? Extra spice comes in the fact that it recently lost a twin test with the ruder AMG C63 estate, and I can see why. It"s not as exciting as the Merc on first handshake, but I"ve got a sneaking suspicion this one could be a slow burner
