Just got back from NEC Evoque Live

Yes, eventually anyway. When everyone was taken into the first room we decided to just hang back until the mad panic had settled down a bit, so just mooched around and had a coffee, something to eat. After about 30 mins a lot of the people had left and that's when we started having a proper look at the cars. Eventually there was virtually only us there, and after talking to one of the LR guys, he asked us if we had been in the other room. Up to that point we didn't realise it was an option, and of course we went to have a look. All in, we spent around an hour in total in both rooms, by then I was desperate just to get in one and have a drive!

So a tip for the people who are going to the Manchester events, after the show and you are taken to one of the rooms to see the cars, see if you can slope off to the room next door, that way you will have the cars almost to yourselves.

I was also at the NEC event yesterday.
Here's a few pics i took. Not sure how to put them on here so you can take a look at http://www.ashleyraines.co.uk/Ashleys_Site/Gallery.html
Just click the rear end image of the Evoque and it will take you to the gallery where you can click a thumbnail image to see a larger version.
Enjoy!

Like this: http://www.holdmyphone.com.au/iPhone-Sho...Mount.html Though I'm not sure if this will attach to the Evoque seats. Definitely won't attach to the D+ seats.

Does anyone know if the headrests on the non-D+ seats are fixed or whether they raise up?

Here is another one for the books (filmed it on Friday at NEC) - took ages to load up but if you can select 1080p or 720p for better quality viewing.

What's in the boot of this one (the silver strip on the floor)? Is this one of the optional ₤155 Loadspace Stowage Rails?

I like the chrome on the column stalk. Do all models have this?

Yes stowage rails.
And the chrome is present in all interiors I've seen so far.
