Sporty petrol estate?

I own a lovely Toyota GT86 that is great fun to dive but I have had to buy another car for the dog! Any suggestions as to what I can trade the GT86 for? I like auto, like the rear step of a RAV4 for the dog and changing into walking boots of golf shoes, but also love the performance of the GT86, I am not a fan of diesel also. Initial thoughts are Subaru Forester XT or Lexus NX but open to suggestions, probably £25k to spend, annual miles 8-10k.

The obvious answer is a Range Rover Evoque 2.0Si with the 240PS Ford Ecoboost engine and an autobox. (If you don't mind 15-25mpg, you could go for a Range Rover Sport 5.0SC or a Porsche Cayenne V8S.)
