    I’ve seen quite a few Evoque Convertible reviews and surprisingly you’re the first to mention LRs of old. In fact all 4x4s (may be apart from trucks) from Jeep to LR to pretty much any others where first soft tops. So indeed it is a great fact and analogy. Also E-C makes way more sense out in a woods or in a field than any other convertible out there on the market. Thank you for a great review!

    The only people that complain about the Evoque are the ones who can't afford it !!!!!
    I love my Evoque !!!

    Looked like a BADASS when you did the side shot with the roof going down

    This is why we like your channel Pete. ...your testing all sorts of cars👍like the colour combo with the gloss black but can't see you fitting 4 people's luggage in that tiny boot on a trip down to the South of France 😨

    • @PetrolPed
      @PetrolPed  8 років тому

      I know. The boot was pretty small. You'd have to pack light...all you need is shorts 😜

      Cheers Mate. I'm getting to understand more about what I can do with iMovie. I aim to get better each time. Feedback like this is great to get as it means I am doing that. Glad you enjoyed the video. Ped.

    Nice video pedro. I think that's a great feature being able to lower and raise the roof at a reasonable speed. Another great video. Nice use of different angles. Clearly you will make it seem slicker. But you have the potential to make some seriously well put together videos. Keep up the good work

    Really great review, you helped me decide to buy one can’t wait for the Summer !!

    I'm impressed by how well you did all the shooting yourself. A pretty honest review too. However, doesn't this hi-tech (?) car come with a rain sensor to automatically put up the roof when it's raining? One more glitch which looked really bad from the front angle of the camera, was that the top of the inner trim of the driver's door (and probably the passenger's too) didn't align with the top of the rear side panel. It's the little details which make the big difference.

      The colour really did pop. The spec of the car I drove was mega. I loved it !

    Nice video Peter, not sure about the singing!!!!! Sorry, as for the Evoque not my cup of tea, hard top or convertible but i am sure they are nice SUV's as far as SUV's go.

    • @PetrolPed
      @PetrolPed  8 років тому

      Cheers Rob. It would be boring if I only did cars everyone liked. One of the reasons I like this car is because I know some people people will hate it !!! It was a nice SUV though. I agree, my singing needs work !!

    Great vid Pete! I can totally see the appeal and actually think it looks pretty good. I wouldn't buy one but that's mainly because I'm not a fan of convertibles. I am a fan of LR and of off-roaders in general so i'd love to see a version that's more 'utility' focused, maybe raised suspension, chunky off road tyres, a winch etc. I think that might look pretty bad ass and have a purpose as you pointed out! The original LR's and Jeeps had no roofs and thinking of this as a modern day version of one of those makes more sense than as you said; an Evoque that's had its roof cut off!
    I'd of liked to see more of the on board tech/nav system and the options that are available/spec'd, particularly the engines. Was this the diesel or the more powerful petrol?
    Love the colour, works well with black wheels but not a huge fan of that particular style of alloy (but just my opinion).
    Anyway, thanks again Pete. Look forward to the next! Cheers Matt

      I had to make a call as to what to cover otherwise the review would have been an hour long ! This car had the new JLR Ingenium 2.0 Diesel. A super engine with a nice balance of economy and performance. I love the colour too !

    Looks a bit naff with the roof up but when it’s down actually looks quite fun

    This compact convertible SUV is all I have ever dreamt of for the period I was 12 to 30 years old. I still would love to have it since I already have a miniVan to carry my mom wife n twin babies, this compact SUV convertible could/still be my personal dream vehicle for off road adventures, country side mischeavous travels, driving in steep roads of hilly mountains, or Swamp with mates or family. Will this ever be available in Bangladesh?

    Great video Pete .. What's the list price as tested ?

    • @PetrolPed
      @PetrolPed  8 років тому

      In the region of £48,000 I think. Not sure if this particular car had any options that would take it above that as it was fully loaded.

    Sorry but it's a very niche market and can't see them selling many especially in the uk,the evoque is primarily driven by women in my experience and lifting the roof is narrowing the market...and it's looks aren't nice

    • @Theoneandonlybay2345

      What if I told you that 2 of my friends are considering.

    • @PetrolPed
      @PetrolPed  8 років тому

      Harwoods Pulborough have sold 10 already. I agree it's a niche market but we love a convertible in the UK. It will be a very Marmite car.
