There is an Evoque that has been around for about 5 months in Scarborough with the same black wheels,roof and colour coded parts of the bumpers as the VB edition and it is by KHAN.I wonder if they helped in the design?

Must admit like other have said, I like the look of it. They are charging the Australian price ($124,000 AUD when converted)

She was on Sky news this morning, attempting to kill LR off a bit more. Yuck, evidently the price includes a luggage set and a hand sewn pouch for your owners booklets. If that's not an own goal, what is?

I bet Coleen Rooney, Jordan and Cheryl Cole already have their names down.

Surprised that it is a 3 door, as she loves to be known as a working mum! Could it be that LR are trying to shift a few coupes as everyone is ordering the 5 door?
Not half as bad as I was expecting but Not sure what you are getting for all those extra ££££'s ....

You may not have a particularly high opinion of VB (I'm indifferent to her brand) but the fact is she is highly regarded in the Far East and the USA by many - so LR Marketing are on to a winner and they know it since that is where they will want to sell most of their cars.
Those of us that don't care about the VB brand in the UK will still buy so a total win-win methinks - those that are actually willing to spite themselves just because of her association with what is undeniably a good car are in the minority I reckon and won't be hurting LR RRE sales.

Firstly, I really like the car.
Secondly, I can't help feeling that had this have been an Evoque 'Autobiography' (or something similar) and nothing to do with VB that everyone would have been far more complimentary.
And as a side issue...... I have to compliment LR on the iPad site for this edition..... Great bit of web design!!

In a word exclusivity - however I’m not sure knowing there are “only” 199 others would have me stumping the uplift.
I did have a Mercedes painted a unique colour at the factory once .... and there was a quiet satisfaction in knowing it was the only one in the world that colour ... but then I am a car nut .... and it was only £2k .... plus I didn’t like any of the standard colours ... so for me it was a win win.
Sorry about misleading people with the £65k price tag - I just did a currency conversion from the web site I saw the article on. Just goes to show you websites sometimes get it wrong. Maybe £65k was the pre Tax price ?!?
My 2 observations are ..... the VB Edition still has bulbs for the indicators ..... so no production LED's anytime soon.
And all the grey plastic bits are painted gloss black ... so my RRE was ahead of the curve on that one!

Has anyone else noticed that the wheels have gone back to saying 'Land Rover' in the middle. Is more Land Rover branding returning to Range Rover vehicles?
