Where will you drive first?

So, you've taken delivery of your lovely new Evoque - what are you going to do on the first weekend you have with it?

Me: drive out of London, probably heading west, no satnav, get lost, drive all day, find some tea, find a B&B. Repeat next day.

RE: Where will you drive first?

Sept 8 out of Lookers Park Royal, onto the A40/M40/ to BMHC at Gaydon for lunch and cheap fuel and then flat out up the M40/M42/M6/m74:M73/m8/A811 to home and then on the 11th it gets taken offroad with the Scottish Green Road Club......... I hope

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.

RE: Where will you drive first?

After driving it all weekend, will end up at the local supermarket. Parking my Evoque at the furthest point from the shop, away from any other cars. Only to find two very tatty looking cars parked very close each side on my return. "WHY" do people do this......

LOL - yep so true. My first day will probably also end up doing some shopping and choosing the furthest end space I can find. Dreading the first scratch due to those that seem to lack spatial awareness when it comes to parking, but need to realise it's bound to happen at some point.

Hoping to drive out to Wales on my first weekend, and staying somewhere nice in a B&B. But also getting the car 15th November so it's not exactly going to be a nice summer evening drive.

Arrived 22nd December - SD4 Dynamic Auto, Fuji White, Panoramic/Contrast Roof, Dynamic Plus & Lux Pack
