Hovis has landed
Well. I've said goodbye to my lovely Evoque.
After a very very long drive to Leicester, picked up my new van.
Well... It's a totally different beast!
I do really like it.
Two things I don't- no heated seats
Plus has plastic wheel arches/ door handles...
Could I get these sprayed/wrapped??
It feels less luxurious than Eva the Evoque but the tax savings for me are too great to ignore.
I really will miss the Evoque. We had great fun!

Didn't really have much choice...
I ordered a new one spec'd to the max. However, it was looking like August before delivery. In the meantime, Eva was haemorrhaging value. Needed brakes and tyres...
So when Hovis appeared fresh from Land Rover fleet... I couldn't say no...
Big VAT cheque coming my way!
Will cope without the heated seats... But would
Like to
Do something about the wheel trims and handles...

Welcome to D4 ownership The wheel arch trims could be changed for painted ones as I know Wiggs went the other way from painted to black plastic on his white D4 so that's one option open for you.Cheers Ian

This thread may be of interest to you Mightymildred
If you want/need paintwork doing give me a nudge, I have a great (discounted prices) relationship with a bodyshop in Sunderland.
Also recommend TVLR for servicing etcPaul.
