Today for the first time since the arrival of my new toy, I thought I would give it a little TLC, so being the OCD freak that I am, decided to give it a clean although it to be honest, it never needed one. Anyway whilst cleaning the inside, I've come across several marks and scratches on the plastics and a couple of annoying marks around the dash area which, I can't get rid off. It's not until you really start to look and pay a bit more attention to detail that you discover these annoying things and by the time you do, it's to late to take it back to the dealer and complain as or they will say is that the marks were not there when they had it. What I also noticed is some of the plastics look a feel like they have been put together by a 5 year old and my apologies to all those with 5 year old children.

My point is, my previous car which I had to sell to purchase my Evoque was a RR Sport and even though it was on a 05 plate, had 2 previous owners before me and was one of the earlier models built, the build quality and fittings were far superior to that of the RRE.

With the money that we have all invested in our beloved Evoques and lets face it they don't come cheap, I would still expect alot more quality for my money.

Forgot to say, still love the car though and wouldn't swap it for anything else at the moment.
