Just came through to computer den with copy of Times supplement to post his comments.
You beat me to it.

A wee birdie (who was present) tells me that at the press preview in either Spain or Portugal (i forget which) of Evoque and FL 2WD the Honda CRV, Rav 4 and Kia were there for comparison drives.
OFF road the 2WD Freelander out performed the other 4 WD vehicles. All FL2's (3) Gone
2011 Mercedes C180 CGI Gone
FL2 GS Auto SD with heated leather, factory tints, alloy spare and a few other bits.

Good find, but that's not 2wd though.

2wd = eD4
4wd = TD4, TD4.e, SD4 and i6
