My Velar is the best RR I have ever owned. 3.0 HSE R Dynamic
Goes very well, quick, stable and quiet, dark grey with full black leather upgrade and alcantara headlining

Excellent, I am also looking for ventilated cooling seats as I may be required to have a second vasectomy reversal in order to repopulate the planet.

Gotta keep the plums nice’n cool in that scenario.

I fancy the grey but with the whitish interior.

Bo1locks literally.
Another correct prediction.....given the strain the medical system is under I may have to operate on myself at home to reconnect the plumbing.




Fortunately within my extensive Covid isolation survival preparations I included the necessary Emergency vasectomy reversals tools.67567

For anyone who doubts an Evoque:

Had a chap in Thursday who picked up his brand new GT from Maranello in the am and bought it straight to us for X pipe, spacers, check over and underseal.

As we have no onsite waiting during the current problems I threw him my Evoque keys and told him to go entertain himself for a few hours.

On return, he was raving about it as is now going to get a 2 year old one for his daily.

I thought that too, class leader but that was you Phil that told me that.

Had one in Portugal as a hire car, soulless but descent enough
Had top of range when they came out, some build quality issues in first batch but much improved now. I'd have another for the wife but want to go Discovery next for 7 seater.... reliability puts me off but will get a three year warranty on it for sure.

Have been looking into these for a while now. Have you had any issues with the electronics BJL? Seems early cars we’re plagued with the screens crashing etc.
I’m not gonna buy for at least 4 months - just waiting for the covid price crash.

Me too Wattie. My Evoque goes back in October so I need to start thinking about it. Target covid special is a Velar Auto, smaller D engine and pana roof for £300pm.

We will see

Pano roof is v nice, I’d also like the ventilated (massage if possible seats)heads up display, intelligent cruise...and of course the Meridien stereo.....r dynamic too.

Oh in a Met Grey, black windows with the whiteish interior.

It might be a long wait as I’ll only buy a heavily discounted demo....or a very good second hand hardly used one.

A bit drastic that, you should've used the temporary version

Have had full fat and sport Range Rovers but not Velar. Now have Cayenne Turbo that has been light years better on reliability and running costs. All my JLR cars were dreadful in this respect and it took me a long time and lots of money before I finally saw the light.

if you have a Porsche SUV as indicated, I wouldn’t consider moving to a JLR product unless you want grief and expense!

All i can say is , your obviously not diving them where they are intended to be driven , basically your looking for a tarmac tractor , and there's plenty out there , if you take Cayenne offroad , i guarantee which one falls apat first , before JLR im sad to say Toyota is now the king for offroad , for capability and reliability, Ive done 100,000 plus rough terrain miles in the last 5 years , only thing the Landcuiser lacks is a bit of comfort seat wise
