Lol !! Same here.....

Some of these sales men think we are still chained to the kitchen sink!!!!

This is what I was told by my salesman when I placed the order after my test drive "Are u sure u want to order now or would u like to confirm it all with your Husband "

My reply it's my car , my cash , my choice !!!

He just laughed ........ Awkwardly .. Ha ha

Good for you, holloway41 and magic dragon. I wouldn't complain if my wife was earning more than me.

A good salesman should be there to sell the car and not pre judge customers. Now find a good salesman, they must be out there.

You could ask him if he needs to call his wife before he sells a car!

Like that one! I will use that next time I get a funny comment or look. I am only 29 too so I think they are just jealous I can afford it

I don't really give much thought to the gender of folk on here until there is talk of 'wives and hot air' (IIRC) in the same sentence and then I am seriously offended

Yep I'm still waiting for my replacement hopefully within the next few weeks!

Caroline are you still driving your rejected car or has your dealer given you a loan car?

For once I appreciate this thing men have about cars as it's teaching me a lot about the Evoque during the long wait.
My husband isn't one of those so I'm grateful to you guys for all the info I'm reading

Add me to this list please!

I love that I think I'm going to have some fun too when I eventually pick it up, especially as my salesman isn't a Land Rover specialist. ( cheaper than going to a LR dealer)

please add me to the list too. I have approx one more month to go...just can't wait , it is like Christmas for a child.
I am divorce ......and buying a car is a bit of a big one for me....my last two cars were exactly the same. This forum has been great, answered a lot of my many questions and kept me going through the long wait.
Especially enjoy reading comments and knowning there are people just like me "Evoquers, Evoquians, Evoquists or people inflicted with Evoque"itis"...... all over the planet.
