Buying experience

Didn't buy from a dealer
Did you buy this car new?
Yes
What price did you pay?
£40,000

January 2014

2000 off list price and immediate delivery rather than a 12 week wait for the 9 speed gearbox.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
What was the dealer like?
Excellent. Could not be faulted, unlike our local Land Rover dealer who wouldn't offer any discount and who kept pushing us to buy extras we didn't want.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
A pleasure to drive. Near hot hatch performance with very little body roll. Very comfortable.
What's it like to park?
OK with front and back sensors/camera. Without aids it would be near impossible to park it without hitting things.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No
What's most practical about your car?
Very easy to drive. Very responsive.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
I quite like the Evoque motive which shines down on the drive from the wing mirrors - a completely useless feature that, for some reason, I like a lot.
