They are in black but I guess you were thinking I wanted the extended roof rails which I did not so I got what I ordered "UNDERSTEER" ---is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" -is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" ------------is how far you take the fence with you.

Very good looking car, mate.
I wasn't sure about the Firenze red when my neighbour told me he'd ordered an Evoque in that colour for March delivery. Having seen yours, I think it's a fabulous colour and will be relatively rare too.
Enjoy !

Japseroony, I ain't a fond lover of the Firenza red and some colours don't look right on a car even if its a nice colour. Personally I thought the red looked lovely as a colour but was pants on your disco as it was delivered in your initial pics. Something was wrong!!!!??? Bit like a beautiful woman model (car) with a beautiful dress on (colour) but wearing Ugg boots!!!! combination!!! then you stuck some cracking heels (wheels) on her and badabing.....awesome!!! Transformed it I picked up my bland Orkney HSE with 20" upgrade, privacy glass, side steps, tow bar, freeview tv, DVD and games consol, side rubbing strips (love it!!!) they are fantastic motors but need the personal touch to enhance them!! Well done mate!!

The LED DRL's are a dealer fit option only at this time. I thought long and hard about them as they are very expensive (dealer did a deal for me so fitted they were £500 inc) but when you see them I think they look good and are very bright. Only trouble is they turn off when you put your lights on but I may have an answer to that
I eas just doing some research on the DRL's as I would love to fit them as I think it makes the car look really smart.
I saw your thread and you hinted at having a solution for them switching off when you put your lights on. Any Joy? I was hoping to see if I could just have them dim when lights were put on.Now with: Tow bar & storage, Xenon's, Remote Timed Climate, Mood Lighting, Cubby Fridge, DRL's, Mud Flaps, 13 pin electrics, Heated Steering Wheel
Accessories: Rubber Mats, Spare Wheel Cover, LR Tyre Pressure Gauge, Warning Triangle, LED's throughout & Leather Gear Selector Top
