If u r in the area, the event at Albert dock (including the public rides) is there for another 3 weeks.
RE: Halewood - Blackseries - 31-07-2011 05:18pm
Many thanks for all the pictures.
I can't believe how many cars there are compared to a week ago.
You said you didn’t think there was anything we hadn't seen before ... but there is. A Black Prestige with 20" wheels and no privacy (it could be my car!) first doc, 2nd photo down - thanks
. It’s the first time I've seen 20" wheels on a Black Prestige ... and I'm relived it looks good. I think I have to reiterate what I said after I went to the factory last week .... that I haven’t really seen a duffer and I think that’s why it’s so hard to choose a combo when they all look good (probably except Colima Lime with a white or silver roof... but then that’s probably down to my personal taste).
Roll on Cardiff.

Also, something I did see that I don't think we have seen elsewhere - if you look closely at the interior photo of the colima lime, you will see that the brushed aluminium has the 'beckham leaf' touch to it!

cjfp - I'm going to be in Liverpool next Tuesday ... presumably I just head down to Albert Dock and I'll find the event ? Do I need to do anything in advance and is there anything else Evoque-related that I should try to do whilst I'm in Liverpool ? Cheers.

Thanks for the pictures.

@physik - just head to albert dock and it is 'to the left' of albert dock, just across from 'The Beatles Story'. Press cars will go through from 11.30, public rides are 2-5. Why don't you pop out to Halewood, only 5 miles out - use postcode L24 9BJ, but when you get near you can follow the Jaguare/Land Rover signs. Take a look in the carparks (through the fences of course, but also pop into the experience centre where there will be an evoque in reception and hopefully some parked up outside which they might let you have a look in)
@mark_n - yes, file size - each original pic is 700k and you can only upload 500k max. Plus, you can only load one file at a time, so it is much easier to load 4 docs than 30 pics. Also, if you view this website on a mobile then each time you view a thread that has pictures posted, it uses loads of data, very very annoying - posting docs doesn't.

Yes, same here. I originally specified just the pano roof, then changed it to black when I had the call from dealer to say my order was going to the factory. Still not shure though. The black does look good but at the same time it detracts from that 'floating' roof effect you get when it's body coloured.
I'm hoping that there will be both at York this weekend so I can finally decide.
RE: Halewood - XFullFatTim - 01-08-2011 09:34am
I am now really glad that I specced the Pano roof and not the contrast roof - if you get to drive the Orkney Grey SD4 Dynamic Coupe at York then try it with the sunshade closed............... it makes the car into a really really dark place inside with a black roof lining - the Pano roof is essential if you have the Ebony interior and i think that not having it will make the car very difficult to sell on in the future. Forget the contrast roof, the pano roof is much more important if you come from light airy cars before the Evoque
