Speccing suggestions please

Hi,

Been planning an Evoque purchase for a while and I thought this was the place to come, so here goes.

I was thinking of changing next year until the good lady suggested 'popping down and test driving the Evoque', must've looked a complete numpty with my gob agape. But anyway back to the title.

Here comes the good and always tricky bit, speccing it up. I'll probably go for a Pure with a few extras and am tempted by a few things even though it has most of the kit I need anyway.

New wheels, not sure yet - Style 4 or 5.
Pano Roof
front fogs seems a given

and Colour -
Fuji with Black roof
Barolo maybe with Pano and Indus
Firenze and Black roof.

I know this is all personal taste but any things I MUST get.

and any recommendations for delearships would be welcome if thats allowed.

Cheers

Well, I had only one "must-have" on my shopping list: MagneRide suspension. Currently in the States it's only avail on the Dynamic, but I understand you get get it in the UK on several models. IMHO it transforms the car. Good luck!

I would really recommend the electric tailgate. trust me you won't regret it!

Yep, Electric tailgate....
And if you're sticking to the pure, get the xenon lights

Thanks for the suggestions, all would be nice to have and I am partial to a firmer ride. Elec tailgate hmmm is it not just a gimmick?

I have the electric tailgate and use it all of the time. I was also unsure at the point of order, but now I've actually used it, I'm pleased I got it.

Must have the pano roof, as it lets more light into the cabin.

I love A/D and switch between Dynamic and 'Normal' quite a bit. The snow mode proved reliable over the last few weeks. (Hopefully, you will find this out on a LR Experience Day).

The Xenons really do look good on the car and I think they are better lights too.

Like you say, colour is your choice, just have a look around the net and also the showroom to see what takes your eye.

Spare wheel is an option lots of people suggest (although I forgot to order it).

Good luck.

Ok will check it out, can't see MagneRide as an option on a Pure

So LED's aren't standard on a Pure? Thought all cars needed DRL's.

DRLs are standard but... the DRL on non Xenon Evoques are a single round - but bright - light , the Xenon option gives you the DRL LED's curved line ( signature lights in all the photographs) .

I really don't regret my blind spot monitoring. I even upgraded form pure to prestige just to be able to have it (not available on the pure, not sure for the dynamic). I use my heated seats quite a bit as the heating is so slow, and yes the electric tailgate is very useful ( I wouldn't have paid for it but it was with the prestige or one of the packs I can't remember).

I know you're in Switzerland, but to clarify that BSM is available as an option on Pure in UK
