Mark - I was wondering also whether that 'electric' blue would be a future colour for the UK market. It's quite like Audi 'Kingfisher' Blue. Coupled with a black roof, gloss back mirrors, and maybe matt black 2 x 2 twin exhausts, black grill, it would be quite stunning! I'd have a slate grey interior.

Yes, I have a 911 turbo in what they call aqua blue metallic and a dark grey interior and it works well. Mark

Here's a Project Kahn FFRR in Cosworth Blue. Not perfect imho, ref the wheels and side vents, and non color co-ordinated sills, but it gives one a good idea of how a RRS could look!

Yes you're right ..not on the Aus website.. Maybe Squirrel can let us know. SDV8 arrived and fantastic even the infotainment!
1983 2 door Range Rover ARB Bar X9000 winch ARB Rear Bar now semi retired.
Many big trips done in this one.
1982 Rangerover nearly restored.
22 Defender D250 with lots of stuff for outback touring
Nice 2013 Freelander TD4 manual (for daughter to learn on) with much better stereo compared with previous SD4 SE with Meridian which sounded bad!
2013 Land Rover Defender ute.

Just seen Chris1806 post on the Colour thread..He says of Loire Blue: "I'm really pleased with the colour, I was worried that it would be too dark before it arrived but it's not when the sun shines!"

Maybe thats our answer. SDV8 arrived and fantastic even the infotainment!

Bali was a colour used on the first-gen RRS. There are photos of a few Bali RRS2 cars on the 'web. Maybe these were very early cars? 

bali blue was only used on 2010my cars for a short time then apparently they couldnt get the colour dye due to the japanese tsunami so i was informed by dealer 2016 bmw x5 40d m-sport space grey
2015 bmw 335i m-sport touring mineral grey/coral interior looking to change again .
Gone HSE SDV6 Dynamic indus silver, santorini contrast roof,panoramic roof,red brakes,privacy,climate front seats,tow bar great car enjoyed it ����
Gone my10 3.0 tdv6 Bali blue/ivory 5 years 24k no problems great car will be missed

The tsunami certainly affected colours for a period but they returned to the list evenually. My 2011 'Sport was ordered as Santorini but delivered as Sumatra for this reason. My 2012 car is Santorini. 

Makes me think a move away from Black - Grey - Silver (aka Light Grey Metallic) - White needs to be taken with care. I like that blue but wonder whether it would be too much, or perhaps this old dog is too conservative... Mark

I may consider sticking with the safe black and having it wrapped. 

Aha Phil, I see you're going for the SVR as well... Mark
