September Delivery - FL2BJW - 07-08-2013 11:17pm
Had confirmation today that the Evoque I ordered in June has now been built and will be ready for collection when I wanted it at the beginning of September. Moving from a Freelander XS to an SD4 Pure Tech in Ipanema Sand with a few options, fog lights, pano roof, folding mirrors and spare wheel. Bit annoyed that Land Rover Finance are now offering £2k contribution on Prestige models, as I may have been tempted to go for one of those. Still that would have been another £4k to find or fund.

Sounds nice. You will probably notice a difference from your Freelander, I drove an Evoque but it didn't tempt me enough to part with my FL2. Tempted by the new RRS though!

Congratulations and welcome to the forum, BJW! Ipanema Sand is such a beautiful colour! You're going to love your Evoque for sure and you have some sweet options on there to make it that bit extra special. We have a 2009 FL2 HSE, which I still enjoy driving from time to time, but if I had to choose I wouldn't give up the Evoque for anything, lol
. Enjoy! Paula xx

I drove an Evoque about a year ago on a half day Landrover experience, quite impressed but like you not enough to want to change from FL2. Now a year on my PCP is coming to an end and the price difference was not much more when you factor in the 5 year servicing deal, so hence the change.

Thanks for the welcome and your comments. Lets hope it does live up to expectations!

Excellent, why not bring it to show us at the Birthday meetup on the 8th September at Gaydon.

Unfortunately the collection/handover is on the following day (9th) so I'm not going to be a proud owner of an Evoque until then.

The wait is over as I collected my new car yesterday and after a comprehensive hand over took to the road in the pouring rain. So far so good, now 112 miles on the clock and I will provide an update in a few days.
