Hi, I've been debating between getting an Evoque and Freelander and took both out for a test drive, and to my surprise I actually had more fun in the Freelander, the Evoque felt too car like for me (I'm moving from a M3 and want something completely different, hence not wanting something that...

What a weird response and conclusion :confused:
