Congratulations. Is that one of the new colours? MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

United States 2013 Range Rover Sport Supercharged HSE Santorini Black

I'm thinking of ordering an autobiography in Farallon as well. I've finally seen a few photos of a 2017 Discovery Sport in that colour but they're not great quality. I still can't believe that you can order all those new SVO paints and other new standard colours like Farallon on a 90k+ vehicle and Land Rover doesn't provide a single photo of what these colours look like on their website. Do they provide photos to the dealers? Somehow I doubt it.

Regardless, Farallon is going to look beautiful I'm sure. I'm looking for a change from Santorini which I love. 2018 Range Rover Sport SVR – Bosphorus Grey

Here are some of the discovery SPORT, not the new discovery. They're just ok -- I would like to see some more professional quality pics and not renders from the configurators.

Most of the google results are Mariana Black. 2018 Range Rover Sport SVR – Bosphorus Grey

Thanks! Saw a Mariana Black parked next to a Santorini today and the difference in gloss factor between the two was amazing! The Mariana car was also covered in major paint swirl marks and holograms but the difference is still there to be seen! If Farallon is anything like this then I'm game! Would need to have a good ceramic coating like Gtechniq CS applied to really bring the most out in the paintwork though.

Reg ending WUU is Mariana...

I do like the Mariana black but like RRSman says,,if I were to get a dark colour first thing I would do is get it professionally detailed.
