When I allow myself to browse the trader, thinking I might want a new car, the filters I tick are estate, diesel and auto. Horses for courses.

Quite right.  :y 

Alpina B3 Touring fits the bill on all of those.  :y

Oops, that should be D3 Touring,  :-[  not that it's particularly relevant.  ::)  Wouldn't want to end up with one of those nasty uneconomical petrol things would we.  ::)
Certainly not! Wash your mouth out  ;D

If you are talking about the 'leccy' Jaaaggg then yes it is impressive at certain things.

Initial acceleration is reasonable but above 60 MPH less so.

Love the look of it, although but not in taxi/wedding car white of the one I had for an afternoon.

I like the 1950's Sci-fi noise it makes when accelerating. :y

As I understand it, they are impressive little machines with a variety of functions, variable speeds, and good handling ultimately leads to end user satisfaction!  :y

Not sure they come under the White Goods label though?  :-\  ;D

Speaking of rabbits or 'wabbits'..... I see Elmer Fudd is no longer allowed a a gun to shoot them. :-\

Not sure how he'll make his 'wabbit pie' in 2021. :-\

Perhaps he'll charm Bugs Bunny into the cooking pot with a talk on diversity. ::)
