I'm leaving the fold!

Reliability on Range Rovers is better than modern day BMW's. maybe I was lucky, my RRS only went in twice in 4 years of ownership

One thing I was a little surprised about was the quality of the Evoque interior compared to the Z4!! It really did look and feel in a higher class (and I was quite happy with the Z4's interior to be honest)! The Prestige model has a full leather interior and the fit and finish is fantastic! The toys are way more than the Z4 also. :P

I'll miss the Z4 engine though for a while!

To be fair the Z4 is ten years older than the Evoque.

I had an E89 so only from 2009. :wink:

Which unfortunately is less than my Z4 did. Not going to knock it though. Great car. :)

I know someone who bought an Evoque, similar in spec to the one I have and he has had it over a year so far and I've kept an interest in his ownership experience. Hasn't had a thing go wrong so far. Still, we shall see. :wink:

Great car Breaker, and will be getting an Evoque too, but staying away from Diesel and going for a 3 door Dynamic petrol model in black.....

I was looking at one of those but the performance difference v running costs didn't add up tot me. Went well though. Also a petrol Evouqe was proving quite hard to find second hand at a dealer. The dealer chucked in an extended warranty to sweeten the deal so from ownership I have 4 1/2 years!

I know - I just happened to have bought a real lemon that was the worst car I ever owned in the mid nineties. Drove great, but cost me more than any other car after that together and service levels from that lot in Edenbridge was the worst dealer experience as well.
 
We see plenty of posts about people having bought a lemon BMW and swearing they never buy again because of the car and the dealer treatment.

I am that person, but then for Land Rover :)
 
My sister bought a new freelander 4 years ago and I thought to myself , this will be interesting and 3 weeks in to her ownership it went in to some sort of meltdown and the dealer had to come and collect it , it was sorted without any hassle and has been fault free since
 
I looked at these myself when Stark mentioned he was buying one, but they're still £30K plus (at least for any nice model) which is too much...
 
Congratulations breaker, my brother has that model in recession white too, with grey leather the interior is significantly better than BMW, certainly up there with Audi
 
Best of luck with it Breaker - nice spec as well in Prestige :thumbsup:

Have you found babyrr yet its like here but for Evoques forms part of a series of Modern LR Forums

You probably haven't noticed but things have moved on quite a bit since the mid-90's! :P

The be honest, apart from one used car salesman there who has sold me my cars, my BMW dealer experience hasn't been that great! :?
 
Good stuff, i used to love the Evoque but i see so many of them in Edinburgh now they kind of lost there sparke with me..

lovely interiors though! :thumbsup:

edit:: tell a lie, i seen one yesterday kind of an apple green brought a smile to my face, different
