Thanks for your comments guys!
My first choice was a Fuji White Pure 5dr... but then I saw this particular Dynamic in the Firenze/Santorini combo and the rest is history... drove it home that same day.
Regarding the wheels, I have never been a big fan of black rims. After much deliberation I decided I would buy black ones as they would complement the upper half of the Evoque; I am glad I did and really like how it looks. I'm happy to hear many of you concur

Love the Firenze in the sun, looks great, I also don't like black wheels but I think the alloy band takes the edge of and brings them out and keeps the colour coding ncely.
Enjoy...

I also don’t like black wheels but as has been said, the silvered rim turns the whole look around, harks back slightly to white -walls. No wonder you get so much attention, the car is drop dead !

Looks fab.
I'm going for the same sort of look on my Dynamic (when it arrives) with gloss black wheels but in Mauritius Blue.
Also going to change the Range Rover lettering to gloss black as I think it will look better with the gloss black features of the Dynamic.
Hoping it will look as good as yours!

Thanks LIONHEAD, yours as well.
I see you're a German car fan as well. My other toys are an '07 BMW 650i, '06 MB E550 & my favorite... 1987 MB 560SL convertible.
I live in the city; based on the pic I'm thinking you're in the suburbs? We should meet up sometime, would be nice to post some pics of a Prestige and a Dynamic Evoque together. Maybe someone in the Chicago area has a Pure and can meet as well - haven't seen pics of an Evoque trifecta yet!

Unfortunately it's going to be a long wait
. I ordered for a delivery of 1st September to tie in with the release of the 62 reg plates here, but I will post pictures eventually.

Old post I know but did you ever get the pictures of the Mauritius blue?
