AFTER nearly seven months, we’ve waved farewellto our Audi SQ7 super-SUV. And as we considerits report card, it’s fairto say there was a marked difference in its performance home and away – justlike my footballteam…

Onthemotorway,itsunflinching appetite for blistering acceleration ensured a couple of 600-mile trips to the north of Scotland were completed in exemplary fashion.I nevertired of its ability to blast pastlighter, more agile cars, while the exquisitely built cabin and spacious rear seats meant my family travelled in supreme comfort.
