Don't know why they couldn't offer this on the evoque, the freelander has the cold pack.... Or something like that.

I'm about to make your day. The Evoque has heated washer jets as standard.

Not on the pure though.

I think it comes with the Tech Pack on the Pure.

in belgium specification, we have "pack cold climate" for all version.
Nothing any heating objet without these pack.

After having it on my Kuga, I could simply not do without it now (seriously limiting my car choice!)

Are you moving on from a Kuga to an Evoque? I have a new Kuga and love it! Might do a Pure Td4 in 2013...

I am indeed moving from Kuga to Evoque. Had a great time with the Kuga. Being 4WD, it has never let us down, from mega snow to muddy fields when camping. Only a few gripes..... As it was first gen, the engine is a bit rough. Wheels are a disgrace really.... Alloys have degraded and are flaking away. Common fault that Ford know about, but don't care. Gear lever leather has worn away, which happened after less than a year.

Plus side....split boot is awesome. Gonna miss this with Evoque. Heated windscreen is great. Seats are comfortable. Bluetooth works well. Services were cheap.

Just fancied something similar, but a bit more 'special'.

+1 for everything urban said regarding the Kuga!

I had looked at the Kuga before the Evoque came out, but I just hated the interior. Loads cheaper of course to buy and own! but it was not for me!
