Reliable? - pink - 27-09-2012 06:15pm
Hi! I am about to order an evoque and wanted your thoughts on reliability. My mom's 2008 sport supercharged had some problems. Had to be towed a couple of times. Those who had their evoque for 6+ months can you chime in if you had any issues, how long you have had it and how many miles do you currently have? Would you buy another?
Thanks a bunch!
Casey

No mechanical "issues", never needed a tow (which you should never do to RRS or Evoque as it will wreck the transmission, they should be put on a flat bed instead of being towed any distance) - mine is almost 13 months old (launch day delivery) and 11,600 miles, most definitely I would buy another. Never had any issues with the 2 RRSports or the 2 Range Rovers I have owned other than an occasional rattle or a "not the car's fault" flat battery on the Evoque this June

11 months gone and no issues on reliability at all. Touches wood...

Just come back from a 650 mile trip, the car performed flawlessly. It's great to drive, suited my intended purpose perfectly and I'm very pleased to have it. No problems after 10 months.
Edit: I would definitely buy another. I'd like some more power but the Si4 has a decent turn of speed when you need it.

Same here - very reliable and I already have another one on order.

No issues here on reliability. Nearly 11 months, 7k miles.
No problems either with the past 3 Freelanders. Early models had some clutch issues (manual cars).
Wouldn't hesitate buying another LR/RR!

12.5k miles and it just keeps getting better

Mine is the Si4 and 9 months old with 4900 miles on it; no mechanical issues.
I had one very minor paint blemish that was repaired and a rattle that was fixed.
I would most certainly buy another, it is a great all-rounder.

10 months 7500 miles no issues.

6 months 4000 miles no reliability issues, one dash rattle which i identified and fixed myself.
