Would you recommend a Land Rover Discovery, Audi Q7 or Volvo XC90 to replace our Porsche Cayenne?

I need to replace a Cayenne S as we have three small kids. Should we get a Q7, XC90 or Discovery? I am very confused. Could buy new or secondhand with less than 10,000 on the clock. Any ideas?

The XC90 is a good car but it's been on sale for quite a while now and is starting to show its age. The Q7 and Land Rover Discovery are both excellent cars and come with seven seats. The Discovery is more practical but the Q7 is better to drive on road and handles better too. If you're coming out of a Cayenne S I'd suggest that the Q7 would be a better choice as it's similar in many ways. The Discovery would feel a little ponderous in comparison.
