twobears Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 It was delivered on Friday and, even though it is my husband's company car, I've been driving round in it all weekend and I like it a lot. We're off to North Wales tomorrow for a few days and although I really wanted to go through those lovely tunnels at Penmaenmawr in Mr Z, I'm quite happy to go in the Evoque as it is very comfortable and smells divine due to having leather everywhere you can possibly stick a bit of leather Here it is, along with a gratuitous photo of my geese who came out to see what I was doing with a camera Quote
nzr350z Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Very nice.................. with roast potatoes with lashings of gravy Car nice too. Quote
twobears Posted July 1, 2012 Author Posted July 1, 2012 I dare you to come here and mention gravy in front of George and Hattie. They'll have your leg off Quote
nzr350z Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 GRAVY...............GRAVY................GRAVY............... Quote
Wasso Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 With roast potatoes yum yum they look nice and plump too The car, sorry jeep, erm no what is it.... Cross over? I dunno Looks nice in white Quote
twobears Posted July 1, 2012 Author Posted July 1, 2012 The awful thing is that I actually feed them from an old, washed-out tub of Waitrose poultry gravy Fortunately, they can't read! Wasso, I like it in white too but this blue is ok I think. I chose it so I have to like it I would prefer it in white though and I never thought I'd say that ... Quote

Zugara Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Notice the geese are running for the Hills...... Quote
Squee Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Very nice Annie. You need a pic of the two blues together Whereabouts in Wales are you off to? Nice geese - I'd like some pet foul but I'm probably a bit too lazy to look after them S. Quote
Vik54 Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 I really like the Evoque... especially in white. Needs spacers and lowering Quote
twobears Posted July 1, 2012 Author Posted July 1, 2012 Sarah, we've got three blues now as daughter's car is metallic baby blue I must line them all up for a photo shoot We're off to our usual haunt, Portmeirion. We pass very near to our favourite garment supplier. Don't know how far away you are from there? I'll give you a wave if I see you and Mr Zebedee Vik, spacers and lowering He's already got a factory-fitted tow bar added at my request but I don't think he'd dare do anything else in case he gets the sack Quote
ChrisS Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Nice to see one in blue. Way too many white ones about now. Quote
JetSet Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Nice colour , SUV's don't do anything for me though Pete Quote
JetSet Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 We pass very near to our favourite garment supplier. Would that be Abakhan ? Pete Quote
twobears Posted July 1, 2012 Author Posted July 1, 2012 "Would that be Abakhan ?" No, not even warm. Try again Quote
dragon Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 One of the guys at lake z had one their, he sells them at dealers says they have sold out till end of year, it was in white but i do like the blue, also the panoramic roof Quote
twobears Posted July 1, 2012 Author Posted July 1, 2012 Husband has waited 7 months for this one. He ordered it in November Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Think they are pretty funky, given the choice I would go for RR Sport personally but I do like them. Quote
dragon Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Husband has waited 7 months for this one. He ordered it in November Yeah, the guy said they can't make enough to keep up with sales!! Quote
twobears Posted July 1, 2012 Author Posted July 1, 2012 Yes, husband was so pleased to finally get it. It arrived on a massive two-tier transporter and we thought they'd take the hated BMW away but they didn't so we've now got that sitting around, covered in a thick layer of Saharan sand that no-one can be bothered to clean off the wretched thing.

twobears Posted July 1, 2012 Author Posted July 1, 2012 Jetset, I take back my comment. I thought they were in Manchester We do go close by there but it's a different firm that I am visiting. Off to pack my bags now and getting excited despite the absolutely rubbish weather forecast Quote
p40ulw Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 i love them! i personally prefer the 2 door, but if i was given a 4 door as a company car i wouldnt complain! Quote
rabbitstew Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 I did briefly consider one earlier in the year as it was coming in at a similar price to my 123d m sport. Also, the fact the evoque`s are currently the "fashionable" car to have for a lot of people, means they hold their value really well. In the end the RWD Coupe won my vote. Quote
Jay Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Its just not for me.... looks as if it has been squished. All the yummy mummies are driving them up here Quote
