Are Coupes getting more popular?

**XFullFatTim** · 01-05-2013 01:34pm

Yesterday in the Stirling area I saw 8 Evoques, only one was a 5 Door the rest were Coupes. At the time I was in my Defender. Interesting that most of the drivers were not exactly in the age profile that LR was aiming the Evoque at too - blue rinse ladies who lunch! Colours........ Well only 1 White, A Dynamic, a couple of Frenze Reds, a couple of Mauritius Blue, 3 Colima's, all Pures and one OG Prestige. 4 of the cars were parked in the Dobbies garden centre car park in a line, so I parked my Defender next to them.

I have a coupe so I normally get excited to see another. In my 4 months ownership I would say I have only seen about 10. And about 200 4 doors... I'm a truck driver so I'm in the road alot

Coupes are rare!

Thought the coupes were only for people with a wide waist-hip ratio and needed a wider door to get through the door.. Smile

Ah.. If only the Evoque can accommodate a winch and a towline, I could come to ya and help you up... Smile

Ps... If any consolation not to offend anyone, I have noticed, that my belt now sags around the beer belly area Sad

You need one of those Nissan Jukes for that, according to the ads I've recently seen on TV they have to be winched everywhere on a Fluro blue winch line!

I love my 5 door but have already decided that when my lease ends I'm going the coupe Dynamic.
Have no regrets with the 5 door but style will win over practicality next time!
