Absolutely amazing. Very classy, it’s a genuinely rare colour on a Range Rover but I have no idea why when it looks so good! Thumbs Up

I’d like to see the interior when you can. L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso
RRS TDV6 HSE Lux (MY2011)... Nara Bronze / Arabica - now gone!

Has anyone compared Indus and Hakuba side by side? 2020 SVR / R.I.P. 2019 SVR / 2016 D4 Landmark / 2005 D3 HSE

Anyone have any thoughts on Lantau Bronze on a HSE silver with black roof? Other option I am considering is Hakuba silver or of course trusty old black.

Avoid black. I’ve a Santorini Black metallic which looks great for about 5mins when it’s clean but every single bit of dirt and dust and every water mark shows up, as does every tiny swirl and scratch in the sun. Would never have another black car for those reasons alone.

I got my HST back in the summer in carpathian Grey, love the colour although it shows the dirt slightly more than my D5 did in Kaikoura stone or my wife’s DS in Corrie grey. Overall, really pleased with the HST, P400 engine is a peach and works well over longer journeys (seems to be better fuel economy than a friends P400e on a long run where the 2 litre petrol struggles a bit more).

I second the choice of Carpathian Grey!

This is just after the car has had a Gtechniq ceramic coating and really helps to keep the car clean and looking its best. Really please with the colour, looks very classy and have already had quite a few very positive comments on it. Also, not that many in this shade which is nice. My old one was Corris, which I liked, but this is so much better.

Where’d you get the ceramic coat done? I have that on my existing car (X5) but I had it done in Scotland 3.5 years ago so wouldn’t be travelling that far this time.

It was done by WOW Factors in Orpington who are an occredited Gtechniq detailer and the only people allowed to apply the Crystal Syrum Ultra. I have been very impressed with the finish and makes the car much easier to clean as well. 2021 5.0 S/C Autobiography In Carpathian Grey, Ivory leather and dark Suedecloth Headlining, deployable tow bar and fridge!

Thanks, that’s not too far from me so I’ll check them out. Like you I’ve found the crystal serum 5 year guarantee thing is brilliant. That plus careful washing means no swirl marks on my dark coloured X5 M50d at all. The RR dealer offered me their Autoglym “for free” but I have politely declined Smile

Looks amazing! What do you think of the coating - can you really tell the difference?
I was thinking of doing this - if you don't mind me asking how much did it cost and how long did you leave your car for?
