Rear Light Cluster

Well my excitement of owning an Evoque lasted 2hrs Sad

On initial inspection looked fine, handover went ok, realised I actually knew more than salesman thanks to this forum.

Took car to be detailed and have Gtechniq products applied and glad I did as during inspection they noticed flaw in paintwork which can only be described as a botch repair by Land Rover pre-delivery. Out come will probably be a requirement for a new door.

Noticed another thing yesterday (2days old) where the drivers side rear light cluster has a crack on the inside at exactly 45deg. Now either this is correct and the drivers side break lights are 2 units while passengers is 1 or it is another defect spotted.

Could someone please clarify if I have a defect light cluster or if I am being a little paranoid.

RE: Rear Light Cluster

Good job you had it inspected! I would have thought the rear lights should be identical mirror images of eachother

Can you post a pic? as there is a moulding flash on the 'side' edges of the lights which initially I thought was a crack, but is not.

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).
