Got mine recently - barnsyuk - 16-01-2012 08:52pm
So there I was standing in the dealers looking at Discos, my wife says "it's bigger than I thought, probably to big" so we go look at RRsports and similar comment. Then we look at Freelanders and Im not impressed then the dealer says he has an Evoque out back, ordered and delivered for a customer, customer turns up finds out its deisel when he ordered petrol and tells dealer he doesnt want it. So thats how I became the owner of a black SD4 coupe Dynamic. Saw it Tuesday, drove off the forecourt Saturday.
I like the car but only got to drive it on Sunday so early days, now stuck working in Durban for 3 weeks, can't wait to get home and drive it some more, oh and see the wife and dogs....

Scary cock-up to have ordered a Si4 to find a SD4 arrives.

Almost as bad as the guy that ordered a 3 door only to have a 5 door show up!

That was good luck! Well done! Similar to me - decided to get one and found one avail the same week.
Where in Durbs are you? (I lived there for 24 years and still have family over there, wish I was there now!)
