Jaguar Land Rover Adding 1,000 Jobs To Meet Demand For Evoque

Opinions from the B&B regarding the Range Rover Evoque were somewhat mixed, but Jaguar Land Rover is having so much trouble keeping up with demand that they’re hiring.
JLR will add 1,000 jobs to their Halewood plant near Liverpool, England that produces both the Evoque and the Land Rover LR2 (aka Freelander everywhere else). Staff will now number around 4,500, up threefold from 2009. Land Rover added another 1,000 jobs at their Solihull plant that builds bigger cars like the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport – Halewood will now run 24 hours a day to crank out cars, since world consumers evidently can’t wait to let everyone know that they drive a Range Rover.

They are buying a brand name, that's all how else can you explain the IQ Aston Martin rip-off?
I always enjoy a success story. Warms the hart. Unfortunately some commenters, yes you ehsteve, feel the need for inappropriate comments. Poor show, not impressed...
People still take Range Rover seriously? Since when?
having seen one of these next to an Audi lot, I'm a bit confused: It's the size of an A3, it's priced like an A6, get the fuel economy of an A8, but sells like an A4(?)
