The wait is over as Range Rover Evoque is launched at Guy Salmon Land Rover Bristol

The all-new Range Rover Evoque - one of this season’s must-have motoring statements - officially went on sale to drivers in Bristol and Bath on 9th September.

To mark its arrival the Range Rover Evoque was unveiled at a spectacular launch party held at Guy Salmon Land Rover in Bristol on 8th September, where invited guests were able to get up close and appreciate its breath-taking looks and advanced technologies for the first time.

Dealer Principal at Guy Salmon Land Rover, Colin Isaacs, commented: “The arrival of an all-new new Range Rover is certainly an occasion to celebrate – particularly one this rewarding to drive and sensational to look at. We therefore wanted to hold a special event, which included a champagne reception and exclusive use of our ‘ultra-deck’, which is a spectacular structure designed to offer drivers and passengers the opportunity to experience what the Range Rover Evoque is capable of. Our guests unanimously agreed that the pictures they had seen simply didn’t do the Range Rover Evoque justice.”

Reflecting the vehicle’s concept car looks and interior craftsmanship, the event combined style and luxury as guests enjoyed a cookery demonstration from local Michelin star-awarded chef, Josh Eggleton of The Pony and Trap before the star of show was unveiled.

The evening was particularly special for Guy Salmon, during which they officially launched their stunning new showroom at Pioneer Park on Whitby Road in Brislington. The showroom, which offers customers state-of-the-art facilities and ample parking in a relaxing environment, is conveniently located just five minutes from the city centre and twenty minutes from Bath.

Colin Isaacs, added: “The Range Rover Evoque is the sixth model to join our vehicle range and creates a completely new market segment for luxury, compact sports utility vehicles. From the reaction of our guests, I have no doubt that it will attract new customers and encourage people to re-appraise what a Range Rover looks like as well as how it performs”.
