5-door Stornaway Grey Evoque from the Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials, where she was competing this weekend.Land Rover UK Marketing Director, Laura Schwab showed Zara around her new car and said "Zara has been excited about the new Evoque ever since we revealed the first pictures over a year ago and indeed she was one of the very first people to order one."
We have a huge presence at Burghley this year, with over 60 Land Rover vehicles in action at the event. It therefore seemed fitting that our first Evoque handover took place here."
On receiving the keys to the new Evoque, Zara said: "I've grown up around Land Rovers and have been an ambassador for the brand for several years ? I am really looking forward to getting behind the wheel of my new Evoque. It looks absolutely fantastic and I am delighted to be the first person in the UK to take delivery of one."
The Range Rover Evoque officially enters UK showrooms this week but is already proving a hit with customers. Land Rover has received over
20,000 pre-orders worldwide with 6,000 of these in the UK.
