Post: RE: Wheel Bearing

Thread: Wheel Bearing
Post: Wheel Bearing

Post: RE: Will a evoque bonnet fit in a evoque???
If you want to know whether a BMW bonnet fits in an evoque, simply drive at the speed limit on any road in the UK, You'll soon have one so close to you that you can measure it!:D |

Post: RE: Personal plates - where to get them made
Got mine form Proplates (http://www.proplates.co.uk) with a nice GB and Union Flag design instead of the ridiculous EU stars. I'll need a GB sticker if I venture over the Channel, but well worth it t... |

Thread: Evoque Plus for late 2016
Post: RE: Evoque Plus for late 2016

Thread: Autobiography EVOQUE
Post: RE: Autobiography EVOQUE
Agreed that the Evoque and Macan comparison in Autocar is not a fair one. One of the main reasons I bought the Evoque is for its 4x4 abilities. Take any Porsche, Audi, VW, BMW, etc off-road and they... |

Hi. I have a 63 plate Prestige and am fairly sure that the headlights or DRLs are flickering slightly when I travel on bumpy roads. Has anyone else suffered from this? TVM. |

Hi, just done the survey, but thought I'd add my two-pence worth, having just sold a hybrid to buy a diesel Evoque.
