I don't know if this was the full test shown on TV but they have posted this on the website http://fwd.channel5.com/fifth-gear/videos/consumer-info/team-test-range-rover-evoque

Silver coupe dynamic with black panoramic roof, black headliner, what excellent taste! SD4 though...

Real endorsement of Magneride...

I think the Evoque was seriously impressive coming down that 1:1 slope. The short overhangs really work. I wonder if it would get up it?

They kind of liked it... Wink

A positive review but 5th gear proves once again that its a cack programme.

thanks for the link! The video is to short, I want to get so much more!!!

By the way: In Germany there was a magazine with comparison test between Evoque and BMW X1. First time, that a german car have lost such a test yet.

MK82, if you do a search you will find the link to the You-Tube video of that test is already posted in the forum somewhere

He does get his physics wrong in the crash though - he says that crashing the Focus into the wall at 120mph (wall not moving so relative speed is 120mph) is like two cars having a head on travelling at 120mph each - wrong, that would be a relative speed of 240mph, he should have said 60mph each to give a relative speed of 120mph
