I loved the auto box, and the modern, digitalised dash etc, but I was glad to get my FL back after a week.
The reason we went for the FL in the first place was that high up ride and utilitarian feel. The Evoque, while very nice, just feels like a car to drive. As stupid as it probably sounds, I like looking over the tops of other cars, and I really like looking at half an acre of bonnet! I also found the Evoque drivers seat electrics gave me a numb right bum cheek after an hours journey.
If you test drive an Evoque for half an hour, you will love it...but live with one for a week and I think you will start to miss the FL.
The FL looks much better splattered with mud as well. 
Agree with your point about the driving position and also want to ad that the load space is much much bigger in the FL2 with the rear seats up and cavernous with the rear seats down. I had the loan evoque for a week and loved it but ultimately its for a different market and not directly comparable as a replacement to the FL2 IMHO.
