Think it's 3yr or 60,000 here.

Almost 3k and 4.5 months everything running really smoothly! Always looking for an excuse to drive these days and I started moaning that my car journey to work is only 10 minutes! lol

My US dealer is beyond great and, partly due to this, we are on our 8th LR product. Early to tell on the Evoque, but if it has an Achilles' heel it's the CANBUS electrical system; but seems less of an issue on the petrol cars, as we have in the states.

10 months and 13k miles and no issues at all. Over 45 years of motoring I've had cars of many makes that have been are both reliable and unreliable; Early Discos we owned were not so good but a Disco 3, Freelander 2 and now the Evoque have all been as good as any rival brands.

LOL

What part of Hampshire?
If I see you I will give you a wave.
I have waved to 3 evoques since being in mine and not one returned acknowledgement so far...
Nice to know there are others in my part of the world who's Evoque makes them smile.

Evoques been back for two days, booked in for a week to go back for a new gearbox, cables changed and adjusted previously, new alternator belt tensioner and for the headlining out to find the source of the rattles.

Had rear bushes greased and centre console tightened over the last two days so has helped, but the rattle on the drivers door from the tweeter area is still there, a good thump 1 to 2 times on my journey to work sorts it.

Only another 60k miles to go before the Evoques gone, if it makes it at this rate, will end up like Triggers broom.

To the ones who say all brands have issues, well yes and no. You're just kidding yourselves if you think all brands are equal in reliability. The Which & other surveys are very clear what brands are reliable and what aren't.
