Thanks all. It is a red rather than an orange - the better-lit pictures give the best idea, I know they're not brilliant. Worth travelling to see if you're not sure. Its as nice as the white on the car, and has if anything more presence. You could see it better in the snow too!

Thanks - very useful review. I do worry, in fact its my only real concern over the Evoque, over the size of door mirrors - they are so big that they are just asking to get hit.
I had to replace a mirror housing (elec folding variety) on my A5 least year - following a tap in a narrow street with an elderly gent in a Honda Civic.
The housing was £85+vat+paint and the LED incator strip another £135+vat and fitting.
I wonder how much Evoque ones are???

Congrats on the car, doesn't really matter what we think, a long as you like it
In regards to point 8, the range rover sport also has a key symbol on the passenger side and if it's for the same reason, it's not a mistake. There should be a cap that comes off with a keyhole underneath. This is for emergency access if the fob fails.

Cheers for that - I wonder why its on the passenger side?

Congrats!! Although not a fan of the firenze red (after having owned a red car for 8 years), I think the interior tan colour looks fantastic - should wear better than the ivory, and not as dull as the ebony

Congrats on the new arrival!
The first in red on the stock prestige wheels that we've seen on the forum
I now just have to visualise with the black roof rails and eureka we have my external spec!
I think Firenze needs to be seen in the flesh to be really appreciated!

Cheers guys - must admit the tan and the wheels do work in the flesh, at least to me!

Congrats Grah, it just wouldn't do if we were all the same - and you've got a car that's already a bigger talking point than most. Enjoy!
