The day we got it, one of the front cameras stopped working and needed to be replaced. It also needs a new battery at some point but other than that, it’s a really nice car. It is thirsty though😬 it only really gets driven around town and it’s returning 18 MPG. Great video Matt.

I bought an 2018 and love it but had a noisy engine ( I thought it was a normal noise for the evoque) turned out to be balance shaft issue and had a problem with the right side drive shaft bearing, luckily all fixed under warranty, fingers crossed for the future lol, but to be honest love the car, how you finding the X1

    Great video, I love seeing the real world experiences you don't see on other car channels. I think it's interesting seeing this so soon after your Jaguar F-Pace video, particularly hearing your comments about fuel efficiency as they both use a 2.2 litre diesel.
    In my mind, if I'm going for a good size SUV for mixed town / motorway, then the F-Pace looks better, reportedly handles great, has about the same reputation on the reliability scale, and is more efficient.
    Does this offer anything the F-Pace or E-Pace doesn't?

    I've had 3 Evoque's, the first was a 2012 Pure with a 7 speed auto box and 2.2 turbo diesel engine (184hp).
    That averaged in three years 32.5mpg.
    We part exchanged it 3 years later for a new, Dynamic 2.2 turbo diesel (184hp) (so same engine as the first but this time a 9 speed auto box).
    That averaged in 6 years 35.4 mpg.
    I've recently changed it for a 2021 model which now uses a 2.00 Ingenium turbo diesel engine (200hp) with a bolt on electric motor (mild hybrid they call it - I call it pandering to Brussells to tick a box but there we are).
    That too has the 9 speed auto box.
    So far, we're getting an average of 39.5mpg.
    Our driving is mainly to & from the village (2 miles each way daily), twice a week to the local town (18 mile round trip and once to twice a month longer motorway drives (anything from 20 miles to 400 driving up to Durham).
    That puts the average above 40mpg for the 2021 car - it improved the others by about a mile or so.
    Problems.
    Apart from tyre's and servicing - nothing at all with the first.
    The second had an intermittent problem at around 5 years ownership with the radio controls on the steering wheel - a software update helped but didn't cure it.
    It also had the same lock issue on the drivers door that yours did - cost about the same to fix. When we part exchanged it this year, the passenger door lock had also failed and there was a loose bit of trim that a 10p clip would cure - yes I did confess it!
    The new one has had a JLR recall to replace a hose and unsurprisingly nothing else.
    Which did I prefer..?
    The pure was lovely, the Dynamic was slightly more harsh / firmer / noisy on the road but they did have different brands of tyres (Pirelli - Michelin) and the suspension on the Dynamic was that fancy active stuff.
    Both of the early models were great cars to live with but I cannot get over how far they've moved the new models on in terms of comfort and refinement - they're lovely to drive.
    I'd have another in a heartbeat.

    The reversing camera is typical! We're on our 4th in 4 years! 3 under warranty and one we paid for! We seem to average aroun 7.4 L per 100 Km on Russian diesel, which isn't the best because big when we get European diesel in it, we get 6.4 L/100Km As you always point out?

    I like my 2017 a lot, but to be fair, the rear diff controller has had to be replaced, the tailgate modified by a recall and the software updated to make it slightly better than crashware - it's still not great. Petrol MPG is actually not too bad for the weight at about 25 MPG. I painted the window trim again as the window trim fades horribly in the sun, but for $300 it looks great now (California problems). Other than that it's been fine. After a quick calculation I think it costs me about $1 per mile in the US, which isn't bad for the class of car at all. Service prices at the dealer are stupid so don't do that, the service parts aren't that bad though. All in all I like it a lot.
    Someone did try to push it down the road by the front bumper (someone else parked like a douche and the Evoque looked like the softer option apparently) and they failed. It wouldn't budge, but the bumper cover and paint cost the insurance company $3300. :|

    Fuel economy has never been Land Rovers strong point but similarly, if you want to drive about in a heavy 4x4, your gonna pay for it. My Freelander 2, with the same 2.2 SD4 engine but with a 6 speed box, I’m averaging around the 29 mark but then it is now shod with mud terrain tyres. On the reliability front, it’s excellent. It’s a 2012 model and in the 18 months I’ve had it, it’s NEVER broken down. My brother in laws 15 plate L200 however, now it’s had a new dpf, new egr, new water pump and thermostat, seems to be working quite well now

    Another great review. Besides a door lock and the reversing camera going wrong, everything else is just standard wear and tear on a 9 year old car. Fuel consumption is high but then it’s doing a lot of town driving and I would guess its slightly underpowered on the motorway. I really love JLR products. They have far more character than anything from the German three. I currently have an s-type 2.7d and on the motorway it will happily do 48mpg but the big auld V6 is barley ticking over at motorway speeds. Around town it will happily do high 20s.

    Nice video, Thanks. I'm really shocked at its mpg. My 56 reg lexus RX400H does 29 to 30 mpg in London and my 07 crv 2.2 diesel does over 44mpg. I would expect a newer car to do so much better.
