You doing Fraser in your Evoque? Not worried about the iron lice getting to it?

Congrats, the wait is well worth it! Nice interior colours. I wish the dynamic had this interior option

Thanks. That was for me also a reason to choose the Prestige model. I love this interior colour.

Should I be worried???
It's done before and a good clean afterwards is always needed.

All i need to do is change my order to the prestige model and buy the dynamic body kit to change the exterior and it would be my dream car!

I live in Bundaberg and with 2 trips two Brisbane I have allready done 1900km. Only a few km's off road, but we have planned a trip to Fraser Island next month. So any off road Evoque advice is always welcome.
I had a little rattle on the drivers side caused by an not correct fitted panel in the knee airbag area. The problem was fixed by the dealer in a few minutes.
I love the car and (as many people said) after delivery I can't remember the months of waiting (ordered November 2011).

Attached a few pictures. One of them is of the Aussie tow bar. In my case it has a 12 pin flat connector. The RRE recognises my trailer without any problems thanks to the LED Adapter Module.

Can I ask about the LED module, where did you get it and how much ? Cheers

We did lol.

Ours was on the FIDELIO!

Been such a long wait! Now we keep checking until it changes from DISCHARGED to DELIVERY ..

I tracked mine on the Otello all the way to Port Kembla where it was discharged on 10th April and................I STILL don't have my Evoque. Three cancelled delivery dates and holding out for this Friday!!
Hope yours makes the short trip from port to dealership quicker than my one does mate!!

Yes, sadly as the communication from Michael Morley there had been fantastic up until the day it left the boat...then a lot of disappointment for what will have been almost a month!! A bit of a shame as my enthusiasm and excitement isn't quite what it was a fortnight ago now!!
If anyone gets the opportunity to move their delivery date FORWARDS, definitely take it!

Damn, my order is with LR Alexandria too and they initially promised me a May build date but it has been move to June (ya, not happy). It doesn't help when the sales person has left the company. However, I didn't get a great deal off them (as they were fighting with another dealer) and the new sales guy tells me I got the front parking sensors free because the previous sales guy forgot to charge me for it (the FDC is mandatory with the Rear Camera).

However the new sales guys seems to be very informative. For these facts, I'm OK with the build date (and hopefully end of Aug delivery)
