Does anyone know how many VB special editions got sold ?

I actually really like the colour but the Black Pack is most interesting!
Have just over two years left on my current Evoque and already building the next in my mind!

Wow, what a fast moving thread.

The Black Pack is very similar to a proposal I put to JLR and its customer services this time last year, when I had a Pure on order and favoured lighter coloured cars with the Black contrast accent. They thanked me for my contribution!!

I am a fan of Blackened light lenses and have had a number of cars with them as a standard fit.

If I hadn't have got my Evoque by now and was contemplating a new order, I would have probably been in the queue for this one, different strokes eh.

Yellow fellow..
What's the next edition, Florida Orange... With black contrast roof ..... Or Mauritian Blue ... Damn ... That's already done...
Fuji White???

So then, the carbon fibre pieces that have been released haven't made it to this special edition... I wonder what they will end up going on?

I'm waiting for the parts to make it to Duckworth, going to be a few orders I expect!

Would look very nice on a firenze...

Duckworthparts have already supplied costs, have you got an order in?

At some point, LR are going to have to provide something of more substance to improve the car to compete with the Porsche Macan. Many will not like the Macan's looks as being too derivative from the next-generation Q5 but the on-road performance of the larger engine variants will kick sand in the face of the Evoque. LR will certainly lose at least some sales at the top end to the new competitor.

Hopefully, LR will come out with an update or expanded range. If not, fiddling about with special editions will not be good enough.

couldn't agree more...but how about this: the trip is important, not the destination. If I can have the trip from A to B in the Evouque, nothing else matter.

It's no longer a journey because I require to get somewhere, it's a journey I enjoy taking where I happen to end up where I need to be.
