Then I repeat my earlier post - why is the Range Rover Sport in the Discovery section and not the Range Rover section - same logic applies.;)Quote:

And another question for thought... (even though some might object) why aren't P38's and D2's on the same page? Don't they share some fundamental chassis architecture and mechanicals?
The RR Classic & D1 are close but the P38 & D2 are quite different beasts. They might be a similar design underneath but nothing's interchangeable.Quote:

This is a thread in the Range Rover section not an Evoque Forum within the Range Rover section, as a thread it can be moved anywhere without changing the structure of AULRO.
IMHO - The Range Rover classic shape, the P38a and the L322 were the top of the line in their time and had unique drive lines. The RRS was never top of the line always marketed as the poor man's Range Rover in much the same way as the Discovery arrived on the market. The RRS does share the same platform as the D3/D4 so remains in that section.
Perhaps the Evoque should be in the Discovery section to keep the RRS people happy, however what I feel is irrelevant it will be the admin who make a final decision.

Are they trading in existing LR's on these new jiggers? If so, what types? If not, what are they trading?
Also, have Freelander sales stalled?
Thanks, Dave.
Jeez, this thread should have been called "where should we put the RR Evoque thread"... :D
I was hoping for some good gosip on how they are selling, etc. Not a debate on where we should chat about them...
Anyway, on my travels around Port Melbourne today, there was a few on a truck heading to MLR, and I saw at least 2 being taken on test drives - very nice loking vehicles on the road. I saw 1 Blue one, and 2 White ones, but I'm not sure if I saw the white one twice...:p
Still on top of SWMBO car list, but she will have to wait a few years until they start turning up at a decent price second hand.
if you mean trade in as in trade anycar, sure they will trade any rover, or eny car for that matter, but im sure the $$ they give you , you will need to be sitting down, i no of 2 v6 disco 3s been traded in for less then 17k, the trade in market for eny thing past a few yrs old is dead,Quote:

alot of fleat componys get freelanders so there still farly steady as such,
Not sure how many have test driven the Evoque, it is quite different in design and the way it drives to the Freelander. It is definately not a Freelander.
The Evoque is much smaller than other RR and LR, it is really only a four seater not big enough for 5 adults. It also is shorter and smaller storage area.
My understanding is many people think it is too small. I think the size is ideal, only need to seat 2 most of the time and carry enough for two people.
In regards to where to put the thread - it seems fine where it is! :nazilock:
Had a look at a 2 door Evoque at the LROC Sydney meeting last night. Not interested in the glass roof, too much sunshine in this country and you'd have to keep the A/c flat out to keep the temp down. Otherwise seemed O.K as a soft roader.
I wonder if I can get mum to trade in her Corolla and we can have a car I wouldn't mind being seen in?
