New Evoque spec - fam1x - 19-12-2013 05:30pm
Has any one with the new car opted for any of the new features such as assisted queuing, Incontrol, I would be interested to know if its some worth added as an extra.
Thanks

Assisted queuing will not be available in the UK as it requires adaptive cruise control. Currently In Control is delaying builds until Feb/March 2014, that's why mine hasn't been built yet depsite ordering in Sept for an original November 5th build. There are no Evoques out in public ownership with Incontrol yet

Thanks for that think I will be holding off ordering until all specs are available then. I have to say I am a little disappointed with the new car config as its not very user friendly in design. Is it me or LR just didn't publish prices of the car you just configured

Normally they do so you get an idea of what it's going to cost you, I like having a print out of what the car cost me so that later when I sell it, it gives the buyer of what it really cost when new.
Once the config is up and running properly you'll be able to see the price.

I done the full config saw the summary of what I want however never got a price just which dealer to go to next

That's because it is the Global configurator not the UK one which isn't yet live, also why it has things like park heat and adaptive cruise that are available in other markets but not the UK market

Idid not opt for any of the extra electronic gadgets and I'm happy about that decision.
Thanks
I looked up the 8 pages explaining the adaptive cruise control, of wich 6 pages of restrictions. As long as I'm not sure which car I'm following I prefer to decide myself about collision avoidance. In so far I wait for the first million dollar court case created by non appliance to the restrictions imposed by the system as it does not fully cover driver's stupidity.
Too many goodies might divert your attention.
So the person that collected her Evoque just before me did back up the car into the garage a few days later and while carefully watching the cameras she forgot to close the tailgate or hit the tailgate button.
Seconds later the tailgate folded through the pano-roof into the car. That's what you call bad luck.
Anyhow on my car the first electronic gremlins are showing their head, so the cruise control is not working as it should and the auto door locking/alarm trigger after 40 seconds is unreliable, to say the alarm is actuated but the doors stay unlocked.
