It was done in a Freelander1 a few years back by a private entrant, the big teams all laughed............................. it finished, many of the big team's cars didn't

RE: Who wants to Beef up their Evoque??

I'm sorry but I don't consider Audi's Q's or BMW's X's to be off road vehicles, they are road going cars given a limited amount of ability to go off road. Merc's M's,R's and G's have more ability straight out of the factory than any BMW or Audi. The VW Toureg/Porsche Cayenne also are miles more competent straight out the factory. Seems odd that Jeep wasn't rated higher as they have been doing 4WD / Offroad vehicles longer than LR.

Quote:The final version hasn't been signed off yet, but the prototype is powered by BMW-sourced 3.0-litre diesel engine with 271bhp. It has a massive 260-litre fuel tank and weighs almost two tonnes.

How can they place a 3L engine in there? Isn't the engine cabin restricted to a figure more around the 2L size or so said RR for the evoque? Or does this gives hopes to atually see a real 3L Diesel engine in the evoke later on! Very Happy

I'm sure you can shoe horn one in there, if a VR6 can fit a mk1 golf, then there is someone, somewhere with the ability to do it.
