RE: Land Rover confirms Evoque Convertible
Discussion
Looks great.
Would love to take this on small stone roads into the mountains with the family. Go anywhere while enjoying uninterrupted views, then drive home in comfort... what could be better?
So what if a lot of mums will buy it and never go off-road. How many Ferrari's are bought and never see a mountain pass or circuit? Does that mean they're silly and shouldn't be built?
It will be a commercial success (lots of mums) and will also please a lot of (mild) adventurers...
But, as the yoof-of-today say, haters will hate...

A drop top 4x4! Now why didn't I think of that?! No, honestly, this is a dumb idea but its the new niche for fools!!
I'm sorry, but people who make these sort of comments have zero knowledge of the brand.Every Land Rover model ever produced (save the Discovery) has either been offered with a drop top option, or had a conversion available through a specialist company.
So maybe you have zero common sense?

Sorry but this has nothing to do with "oh, but all the old Land Rovers had drop-top versions so this makes perfect sense"
So it would be ok if it was a rufty tufty "proper" off roader and the lack of a roof was down to cost/not actually needing one as opposed to being a bit of a poseurs car ?foxhounduk said:
Haha. I'm referring to the compact crossover SUV i.e. the Evoque in the article? I know that Land Rover's can have a soft top, my neighbour has a 90s Green Defender, plus every single nature documentary in the serengeti ever shown on TV uses one.
So maybe you have zero common sense?
