Each to their own, as you will know J77 exchanged his Evoque for a new FL2 and he loves it. I like the Evoque and its nice to go on Martins other forums, I hope you don't mind me being here!

Fancy meeting you here Laughing

Yes enjoying my Fl2 a lot, it's nice to have that Land Rover driving position back again. It felt weird the first few days sitting higher up and having to re learn how to take bends Laughing

RE: What car did you have before your Evoque

I had an older style volvo s40. It was a good car but obviously the evoque is streets ahead on almost all levels.
I reckon if I ever have to part with the evoque, it'll be for a full fat range.

Just noticed your reply. Laughing

I thought I'd join and see what the Evoque is really like and test out Martins site. Wink it looks good on here, but I'm not planning on parting with my FL2 any time soon.

RE: What car did you have before your Evoque

Welcome U966, there are a few of us here who are exRRS guys, I had two of them, a very early( one week after launch in 2005) TDv6 2.7SE then a 2007 TDv8 HSE, I reckon the best all round car I have ever owned - it handled really well with its trick suspension, went very well with the TDv8 engine in it and was a decent size car for a single guy and wasnt a moving van........
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.
