2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque
« on: September 30, 2010, 02:46:54 pm »
This is one good looking CUV (beautiful in my eyes)...  :drool:
It could use 20-30 more ponies to move its well disguised mass (aprox 3800 lbs with 4WD) with authority, but 240 hp may be just adequate.
If money wouldn’t be an issue, this would be one irrational purchase I would make just for the sake of style and luxury.

With rounder lights this could be a giant Mini Cooper. :o

That was exactly my impression, then I scrolled down and saw your comment.

 I see 2011 Ford Explorer / Edge.

I personally love the styling of the LR2.  Too bad its a POS...

This car is a beauty!  I took the Dynamic model our for a test drive and was shocked at how harsh the ride was!  I think I lost a couple of fillings.

The car is very quick and the interior is as attractive as the exterior.

I plan to test drive the pure (base) when the dealer gets one as all the auto scribes say to stay away from the dynamic model because of the suspension.

Following the RR test drive I took out an Audi Q5 3.6L and that car was a slug compared to the RR, that said the Audi was much nicer to drive but the Audi doesn't stir the sole like the RR.
