Sorry, you can't have an Evoque.....
Mrs Greeni recently asked her boss for a new car...She's had her A5 S-line Coupe for 12 months now Rolling Eyes
"What would you like?" was the reply.
"An Evoque" she said.
"Get me your spec. and I'll have a look" replied her boss. (Who has a VAST passion for all thing's with a Green Oval on the front..he has a G4 Disco, Series 1 80" etc.etc,...and stuff with Bentley and Aston Martin on the front!)

So, 'we' specced one up Mr. Green

Later in the week he called to say
"You can't have one, it's just to Girlie, you can have a Range Rover instead?"

"Range Rover" meaning "Range Rover", or a Sport?

The jump up from an evoke to a FFRR is quite big financially. So I'd call that a result! Thumbs Up

It's the target market.
Once you've figured that out it makes a lot of sense.
To me, most of them are people who wouldn't otherwise buy a Land Rover group product.

Take the Range Rover brand image and sell, sell sell...
No doubt a fantastic product for the balance sheet. And it'll bring new customers to the marque.

It's another Land Rover success story waiting to happen.... I like them, just because you can have a white roof specced !!
