Audi RS7 Sportback
Why 7.0: A fastback saloon that does 0–100 in 3.6 seconds while looking broadly like a well-optioned A7. High annual mileage for a £100k car; these get used as daily drivers by people who need a quick answer to ‘what car do you drive?’

The long version
The RS7 buyer’s pitch is anonymity at speed: quattro AWD, 600-ish horsepower under an A7 body, an interior that could pass for executive transport until the driver finds a gap in traffic. That combination — proper supercar pace, four-door practicality, understated styling — means the annual mileage on used examples runs high by performance-car standards. People buy this to use it, not to photograph it. Values depreciate at a healthy clip after the first three years, which is when the second wave of enthusiast buyers arrives and the mileage really starts to accumulate. Both generations earn the same verdict: the sleeper that drivers actually drive.
