Outrage over Land Rover advert which encourages people to bring new 31,295 model to Edinburgh

The advert, which includes chef Tom Kitchin and famous landmarks such as Arthur's Seat and Calton Hill, shows someone driving around the city in the new £31,295 Range Rover Evoque.

A man and woman in the video explain why they love the city so much while driving around Edinburgh in the new car, saying things such as: "It's a city that has always celebrated its traditions and its history" and "I love Edinburgh."

One person replied to the advert on Twitter, saying: "Yes come to beautiful Edinburgh by all means, but please don’t bring an emission generating vehicle with you. It’s nicer for everyone that way."

One response said: "NO! Stay away from our city. It's not built for huge, monstrous, gas-guzzling polluting cars. It's an extremely walkable city and has one of the best bus services in the UK."

Key features of the new Evoque model include live traffic updates, the ability to link music streaming services t your car and a remote app to track your journeys from your smartphone.
