Ipanema suits the 5 door too

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

Stornoway is much darker - I have a Stornoway FFRR TDV8 Vogue and my last car was a Stornoway Sport TDv8 HSE

RE: Autocar Exclusive Test

According to the Congestion Charge website, VX10HWN is a "GOLD LAND ROVER UNKNOWN MODEL"

Doesn't it look a bit light and not brown enough for Ipanema? What about Indus Silver ?

RE: Autocar Exclusive Test

in the actual paper, it looks even more silver.

RE: Autocar Exclusive Test

On the Land Rover website the colours are always darker or lighter than in person. Ipanema Sand looks brown but it's actually a light beige colour in the flesh. Of course the light will make it look different. This is an Ipanema Sand FFRR for example - http://www.harwoods.uk.com/used-cars/vie...=LBC204978

Thanks for that example. This is going to be one of the most difficult things, picking the colour - are all the colours available somewhere in the LR RR range?

RE: Autocar Exclusive Test

Do you mean the colours available on the Evoque are on another Land Rover already out?

RE: Autocar Exclusive Test

the other way to put it is "which of the evoque colours have not been used by LR RR before"
