There is also a decent Audi independent near me (Northwood). When you come to buy, it might be worth dropping them a line.
Anyone had one or got direct experience of them? I am looking at a low mileage 2018 car to replace my D4 Discovery, which is used for mile munching and family/dogs transits, with little off-road. Thanks.

Little serious off-road, or no serious off-road?Originally Posted by Skyman
If you really want to do serious off-roading, then use the Jeep - the approach angles, slim profile tyres and body kit on the SQ7 would not be good at *serious* off-roading in
^^^^Indeed.
Do people actually buy a velar or an sq7 for off road use?
Seriously? Is like buying a rolex for telling the time :)
Question already answered, and OP has long since been amended accordingly in order to correct my poor original drafting. My Wrangler is for off road duties. So, no, not in my case.

I have a pajero shogun for off road use and i am happy
The only audi ive seen off road on a constant use was the old style 2.7 allroad model
Like that a lot

Sq7 are fantastic things. Friend had one for a year. Comfy, spacious and deceptively fast.
I’ve got a q7 the lowest power one but fully optioned , it’s a fabulous car I’ve never felt it slow and it’s smooth and comfortable . It’s my first SUV and better than I hoped . The SQ7 must be an absolute missile .

Ive got an SQ7 ( 2017 ), its looks great, it drives great but ive had nothing but problems with it !
Ive had multiple issues with an alarm sounding saying the back seats are not engaged, its been back and forward the garage 3 times.
The alarm randomly goes off during the day and night !
It completely went dead one morning and was told it was a wiring problem.
and strangest of all people who sit in the back all complain of car sickness ?????
Who knows maybe ive just been unlucky but I wouldn't buy another.
My only comment on the Q7 is they’re absolutely massive! - my wife’s best friend inherited one when her father in law passed away and she hates it - it was parked next to our XC60 on the drive (which is the biggest car I’d ever need) and looked like a Star Destroyer our of Star Wars - why would you need a car that size on UK roads? I asked her (we live in rural Norfolk where the ability to leave enough room for tractors to pass on country lanes is a daily reality). She says she spends so much time reversing it to escape exactly that kind of issue she’s convinced her husband to sell it.

No such issue for me in rural France. Loads of space.
Thanks. The first bad comments I have seen/heard regarding the car.
I believe that they have a healthy appetite for rear tyres (as do the Touareg and Cayenne which share the platform). Well, that's what the Internet says, anyway.
Spoke to the guy I know at dealership/service side - says has seen monster warranty claims - and wouldn't recommend based on the issues he sees. Warranty work is frustrating and eventually folk just get rid were his words.
Wait for the new Defender....
Useful feedback. Thanks for taking the time. I might just go for something like a 50TDI Q8, and have a Defender 12/18 months after launch (to avoid being one of JLR’s new model customer test pilots).
What to compare the size of warranty claims lol ;)
It's just a matter of time...
