If your SE saloon is a turbo and the 2.3 estate is low-pressure turbo you’ll find the estate seems less powerful despite its 300cc advantage. This is my experience owning both 1994 2.0 and 1997 2.3 estates.
Unusually high fuel consumption could be down to a number of factors but in my experience changing the lambda sensor often helps.
The estate can of course be more practical, but you lose the ability to hide things in the boot.
