Normally I'd be upset that a decent car was being wrecked for mindless entertainment - but this wasn't a decent car even when it was new - so I'm good with it. Actually based on the "next time" footage at the end, I'd say the car isn't even going to be worth fixing let alone $5000.
It's hardly trashing compared to whistlindiesel who literally destroys historic classics for fun, at least he is driving the range Rover like it was advertised. Some broken plastic panels and a scratch is nothing when he can repair it 5x more with the sponsorship and ad revenue from the video.
Yeah he reminds me of me, he keeps buying the worst examples of aspirational vehicles and then, unsuprisingly encountering every problem those vehicles have in a wallet-draining succession until every part that could possibly wear out or be broken by twiddling has been replaced. The difference is he still gets paid even when he's on a losing streak. I'd start a youtube channel about my stupidity, except that market is already saturated. Maybe I should start a DIYing things you shouldn't channel, I'm an expert in that as well.
I remember well when I worked for the Range Rover dealer in the Netherlands that this model came out. We had an orange demo model, which I sold not much later for just € 97,750 a real bargain. The woman who bought it wanted to take it to Croatia for vacation, and could not wait for the order to arrive so she bought the demo for the asking price. And the reputation of Range Rover did not fail, the car broke down half way through her trip. Had to tow it back (from Italy I think) and swap the engine after 1500km... I never felt so ashamed working there.
Had similar experience in the UK dealer network, car was demo'd with some of the design guys present, they didnt like it when we pointed out everything that would go wrong
@desertstormer7556 you asked him if "you checked the engine" as if he was the one driving. Get some reading comprehension asap. Pulling for you. I know you can do it, get that GED
I had a normal Evoque, spent 5 of the 6 months I had it in Range Rover trying to be fixed. Gave up in the end and got my money back. My one had the better 2.2 Ford Diesel engine too, not the Ingenium crap they have now.
Doug did less damage to his Land Rover Defender in all the time he owned it. Doug is the type of guy who keeps looking for a nicer example if there is a single scratch.
At this point Hoovie is just taking the piss out of everyone. “I paid twenty grand for this really nice example. I’ll proceed to turn it into a wrecked $5000 version”.
I was just glad he didn't kill 100%Jake at 12:58, when he went over the first hill. Jake was squating down with his camera filming this whole thing, but thank G-d he can move fast, because he was right in front of the car. Has Hoovie finally lost his mind over the mess and length of time it's taking to get his house and land sorted. I think it was the video where he was sick that he looked a little on edge over all the mud and mess around him. G-d bless.

Now I understand why everyone was cheering on top of their trucks and jeeps when I took my almost new decked out 2003 Nissan Murano AWD four wheeling. It was worth it.
great episode! would love to see a follow up where you only change the tires and try again. or great future car trek, you each buy a 3-4 thousand CRV, Rav4, Eqinox and then only put on mud tires and see which car makes it through the most challenges!
I honestly wouldn’t trust my series 2 (pre defender) going up something that steep, I’d have more faith in the some of the newer stuff, but that’s still too steep for almost any vehicle.
It was winched up. Richard Hammond did a recreation of the stunt on Top Gear in a 64 year old Land Rover. It looked terrifying. Unlike the original advert though, the Land Rover winched itself up albeit it had a second engine in the rear on a pivot so that it would still runs and power the winch when vertical.
Yeah, I figure the revenue from the two videos uploaded will likely justify this purchase. Local economy grows as Car Wizard fixes the trade-off for our entertainment, and Hoovie still ends up with a profitable sorted convertible Evoque.
@@Decipher13 Did you hear what he said about resale values? The fact they`re still surprisingly valuable, shows they don't fit the definition of "undesirable", despite their horrible reputation.
@@Decipher13 The Mustang II was never rare, as junky as it may or ay not have been, neither was the Trabant in its homeland. Both of them shed value like a piano falling off a cliff, the Evoque soft top was never common, mainly because it cost a lot compared to its rivals, & it was only intended to appeal to a tiny niche market, its not comparable with your examples, & as I said, its residuals are surprisingly solid, given its now old, has a worse rep than ever, & still only appeals to a tiny amount of people. The OP said he was surprised Hoovie trashed what seemed to be a fairly decent example, compared to some of the other commonly available junk he`s got his hands on & subsequently blown thousands on restoring, I think he`s right, it seems kinda ridiculous, but then, this is TH-cam, & "big" TH-camrs sometimes pull stunts like that for likes, even when it contradicts who they usually are.
Have you seen what Mustang II survivors are getting these days? The King Cobra and Cobra IIs are now highly coveted thanks to boomers hogging all the good Mustangs.

I watch people destroy their dailydrivers on the regular, sometimes nice, expensive vehicles. You do you Hoovie, let the haters make their own content of them buffing out their own rides.
Off-Roading in a convertible seems like a cry for help.
Well it was designed by Posh Spice made for the streets, not off-roading.
Well, a Spice Girl helped design this thing soooooo.
How I still remember that is beyond me 🤣🤣🤣
good god, really?
@@joesmith9216Yes, Victoria Beckham really did have a hand in the development of the Range Rover Evoque 🤣
And the entire mindless mob of miscreants on the View
@@dth2brny121 yeah I figured it was her, she has the most connections, she has aristocratic blood.
Now I understand why everyone was cheering on top of their trucks and jeeps when I took my almost new decked out 2003 Nissan Murano AWD four wheeling. It was worth it.
Hoovie, making the Car Wizard money with every purchase.
"I actually like this car."
Treats car like he stole it and keeps crapping on it until it's shot.
great episode! would love to see a follow up where you only change the tires and try again. or great future car trek, you each buy a 3-4 thousand CRV, Rav4, Eqinox and then only put on mud tires and see which car makes it through the most challenges!
Ya gotta love that old Land Rover commercial lol. Not a chance it or probably any vehicle drove up that dam lol.
Its winched. It shows that in the original ad…
it did go up there.
@@Mr_Judge_Benny_Hinn lol ya being pulled up with a winch like he said above.
I honestly wouldn’t trust my series 2 (pre defender) going up something that steep, I’d have more faith in the some of the newer stuff, but that’s still too steep for almost any vehicle.
It was winched up. Richard Hammond did a recreation of the stunt on Top Gear in a 64 year old Land Rover. It looked terrifying. Unlike the original advert though, the Land Rover winched itself up albeit it had a second engine in the rear on a pivot so that it would still runs and power the winch when vertical.
The whistlindiesel approach
Woah! Was NOT expecting that 😂
Nice one Tyler! That was properly entertaining!
He did not pay that much to do that to his car
What?
Yeah, I figure the revenue from the two videos uploaded will likely justify this purchase. Local economy grows as Car Wizard fixes the trade-off for our entertainment, and Hoovie still ends up with a profitable sorted convertible Evoque.
He payed nothing. It's a sponsored video and 20k (if it realy is that) is peanuts for a used auto trader of this size.
@@justjoe7313 “paid”*
@@justjoe7313 He... waterproofed a boat... nothing?
Are you one of those proud, poorly-educated?
These are very rare, im surprised hoovie is trashing it
@@Decipher13 all the cars that are really popular started out as undesirable.
Yeah, car tube at its worst, really. Destroying an otherwise good condition rare car just for shits and giggles. Entertaining though.
@@Decipher13 Did you hear what he said about resale values? The fact they`re still surprisingly valuable, shows they don't fit the definition of "undesirable", despite their horrible reputation.
@@Decipher13 The Mustang II was never rare, as junky as it may or ay not have been, neither was the Trabant in its homeland. Both of them shed value like a piano falling off a cliff, the Evoque soft top was never common, mainly because it cost a lot compared to its rivals, & it was only intended to appeal to a tiny niche market, its not comparable with your examples, & as I said, its residuals are surprisingly solid, given its now old, has a worse rep than ever, & still only appeals to a tiny amount of people. The OP said he was surprised Hoovie trashed what seemed to be a fairly decent example, compared to some of the other commonly available junk he`s got his hands on & subsequently blown thousands on restoring, I think he`s right, it seems kinda ridiculous, but then, this is TH-cam, & "big" TH-camrs sometimes pull stunts like that for likes, even when it contradicts who they usually are.
Have you seen what Mustang II survivors are getting these days? The King Cobra and Cobra IIs are now highly coveted thanks to boomers hogging all the good Mustangs.
Doesn’t have good brake pressure… proceeds to thrash it around a field
That was flippin hilarious, and with the not-so unexpected final few frames!
I completely disagree! This is the only Evoque I would ever buy! Convertible SUVs are a GREAT ideal and I wish they made more!
Why?…
Are you really bored
Hoovie?
$20,000 Huh…🤔
