Lots being transported South tonight

During my 25 minute drive on the M6 tonight between J10 and J4, I spotted no less than 3 transporters full of Evoques heading Southbound. The first transporter was pretty much full of Orkney Grey cars, with a solitary fuji white in the mix. The cars on the back seemed to Pures but were missing part of their rear bumper trim - don't know why! The other 2 transporters contained silver, black and blue Evoques in various specs. Obviously on their way to dealers for the launch.

The rear bumper trim has to be removed so they can be lashed onto the transporter using the lashing/ recovery eye that is hidden behind the offside rear section of the bumper

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.

As I passed my dealership this afternoon I spotted a transporter with 5 Evoques on, 2 black, 2 grey (one lighter than the other) & one white, so I just had to stop and have a look before they hastily got them off and hid them up out the back of the premises! It's the first one's I've seen in the flesh, am very excited now!
