With a contrast roof you'll probably looking to spend £500 more with or without the leaks....Laughing

Got mine : Dynamic Fuji White with Lux Pack and black contrast roof.
Optional extras : Privacy glass, Heated steering wheel and TPMS.

And doesn't a folding roof add extra weight - which apparently the Evoque doesn't need with its exemplary mileage (sarcastic hrrmphh).
I had a folding hardtop on a VW Eos (MY200Cool and it was a special thing. Kids loved it and would show me their transformers toys. A convertible is a magical thing - unless it has an Evoque badge Wink

Evoque fan who used to drive Shocked a Pure, Fuji, 19" style 4 alloys, heated everything, rear cam, power tailgate, pan roof, privacy glass etc

RE: Convertible deposits taken!

The eos (and covertible megane) were notorious for their poor designed roof... They all leaked more than a leaky thing in leaky town Surprised

Ordered: Fuji Dynamic Lux Coupe / style 7 wheels / Privacy glass / adaptive xenons / something else which I've forgotton.
Should be end of April (was March, then April, then end of May/June).

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

RE: Convertible deposits taken!

As I understand it, LR have not even confirmed it's going to be built but difficult to believe it will not be. I think hard top convertibles present a styling challenge - I have an SL55 and it's sort of OK (IMHO) but the latest SL is (also IMHO) horrible.

Besides, having a rag top is all part of the fun, that incessant drip onto your head from a misaligned window seal...

Evoque was great, now in an RRS SVR
