Bought this car new in 2011.

Bought this car new in 2011. When I first saw one, I bought one the very same day. Fall in love with the design. Wrote a checkk on the spot $44,678.54 . Worst money i I ever spent. Spend more time in the repair shop then in my garage. Not a week went by that there wasn't an issue. Bought it for my daughter's high school graduation present. We really want her to have a new safe car for collage. I can't tell you how many arguments I got into with Land Rover. Tried to use the lemon law. Poor girl.nwver had her car always a rental. 4 months later and 2800 miles got rid of that gorgeous exterior and thee piece of xxxx motor. They have lost a customer for life. Every year for the last 25 years I always treat myself to a few new toys. Why not. I deserve them. Stay away from these cars. Beautiful on the outsides and ugly as he'll inside. Reminds me of the cheer leaders in high school, that everyone wanted to screwed then ended up broke alone and dresses like she barging basement xxx bucket

Financial mistake

I loved the look. Very comfortable to drive. Fun to drive as well. The problems began with The check engine lights. Had numerous issues with misfires. Resulted in several injector replacements. Eats brakes. Every service was a paycheque.

Great Looking, Costly Repairs

Good: Love the look of the car, exterior and interior. Very high quality workmanship on leather and other cosmetic parts. Very good pickup if you don’t mind the turbo charger lag. Bad: Extreme vibration at 50 (only around 50mph, so loud I cannot hear the radio - 4 trips to dealer could not solve) and vibration also when front windows open. Replaced water pump $800. Replaced sensor - required replacing entire radiator because it was built-in. $4,000. Replaced roof (cracked when flashlight slid between roof and tailgate while closing - also required replacing tailgate as molding is fused with tailgate) $10,000. Replaced windshield with heating wires $1000+.

Great sports SUV

The car rides very smooth on the open highways and has enough acceleration for passing slow vehicles when going up a steep grades with ease. She corners like a panther with precise positioning from left to right. I purchased the Dynamic because of the extra options and very glad I did especially with the 20" wheels that gives it a sportier look. Very nice comfortable ride around the city. I must admit that while cruising the highways I was impressed that I was getting around 33mpg at 70-75mph, this was very impressive for me since the dealer information states that 28mpg was average on the highway. Great car & I've grown to admire my Evoque Dynamic.

Fun to drive

The car was very good to me. I had no real issues and drove this car daily. The maintenance was a little pricy, especially the tired.

Broke down the 2nd day.

My wife and I went up to seattle to buy this vehicle. Drove great the 160 miles back. The engine had a complete failure on my way home from work. Everything shut off and won't even turn over.
