So - been having a mooch around the forum and some queries have come to mind (apologies as I'm sure there will be more coming)
4WD/AWD? - I've read about Haldex units, which would suggest the Evoque is not a 'true' AWD as this unit does jiggery-pokery diverting power to wheels as needed?
Off-road capabilities - it does appear the Evoque is more than capable off-road, but I have to ask - is this down to the tyre that are fitted? Are standard tyres up to the job or do you need specific off-road tyres - coupled with that does wheel size make a difference?
Headlights - Xenon or LED? I've read the Xenons are poor? Are the LED the main headlights or just the running lights?
Maintaining - The car we will be looking at (budget wise) will probably be out of 3yr warranty (or close to it) - I see myself as being able to tackle some maintenance tasks - oil changes, brake disc/pad replacements - how far can a home DIY mechanic go?
Cheers MIB
