Mine doesn't want to part with the D4(was thinking part exing D4 when it got to 3 yrs old at end of next year for another evoque)then again we still have prams etc and I still have issue with the boys not being able to see out the rear windows of the evoque.
Personally, if you don't need the space, I'd go for it. Had a friend in mine on the weekend and he thought it was a 50k car. Was gobsmacked when I told him it was 36k. He's now trying to convince his wife to get one

Obviously much smaller than my Disco 4 but it felt large enough with decent road presence.
Off-road it loses low range and other Disco/Defender bits and bobs but its capability is more than I need really.
Build quality seems to be better than the BMW's I've had in the past: 335i, Z4M etc. In terms or toys, well it does appear to be a decent spec but then the price reflects that.

On-road it is very good - loved the magnaride gubbins at work, the car was noticeably better through corners.

I've given the Evoque much thought in recent day's and after my test drive I decided I definitely had to have one - it is more 'me' than the Disco 4.

Sooooo, I have bought an Evoque Dynamic Si4 with Lux pack in Orkney grey.



Congrats, so when do you expect delivery?

Have you bought or have you ordered one?

Only ordering means several months wait.

I contacted several Dealer's around the country and discussed what they had immediately available and found one with an unregistered car I liked that was sitting in the showroom.

The three Dealer's closest to me quoted 4-6 month waits - even their Demo's aren't going to be avail until March.

I decided I wanted the Si4 Dynamic with Lux and chose Fuji White, Orkney Grey and Colima Lime as colours I would like. The car I found is Orkney with Pursuit lunar, ivory and ebony.
My wife's Mini is grey metallic with black and glass roof so they are going to match!

When I ordered mine I got my dealer to search their dealer database, unfortunately nearly all cars available were Prestige.

Dealer vehicles were not going to be available until Jan and weren't to our spec.

Thanks for the reply.
