2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

You didn’t have to pay £12,000 extra when that green was available on the 2011 Evoques, it was a standard palette colour - it wasn’t hugely popular especially as it was also available with a plum/ purple interior colour scheme............... 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Lol this is a different paint Tim - it’s triple layered like the Ferrari special paints. Still £12k is a bit extreme as Porsche do this for £4000 and BMW for £2500

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 Autobiography Fuji White

Why would anyone want to pay 12k for a paint job that no one will want or buy in a few years time when it comes to sell it,,plus the stealers won’t give much if your pxing as their excuses will be,,,,sorry we can’t give you book price as we will be struggling to sell on,,so we’ll give you 12k under book,,,,,so it works out at 24k for the paint job.

Farnells seem to spec a lot of these as last year they had a Lambo Green and Lambo Orange SVR too. SVO can do any paint colour as long as you have deep pockets

Here is a green one

This Lambo Orange one was at Farnells last year, and a Lambo Green one was due the following week.

I get the desire for people to have a more unique vehicle where you won't see 5 more of the same colour on a daily basis. But these are just "hey everyone look at me" colours and I suppose that's a priority for some people. As much as I love the RRS and am excited for my SVR to arrive, I just don't think the shape of the vehicle is exotic enough to pull off these colours. A Lambo, Ferrari or R8 perhaps, but these just look stupid. 2018 Range Rover Sport SVR – Bosphorus Grey

12k makes Porsche charging 2.5k for ‘paint to sample’ a bargain
