Barolo Black with Spirit interior

Has anyone seen a Barolo Black Evoque with the Spirit interior?
Hope that we are not making a mistake but this is what we have ordered.
A while ago we had a Black Mini Sidewalk convertible with this interior and it was nice..............different.

Thinking about changing the interior from Spirit to Vibe.
Has anyone seen a black car with the black interior, is it too dark?

Its very difficult to guesstimate how good a car will look without seeing it in the metal beforehand.

It's worth looking at other RR models in your local dealers. There's often vehicles either in the showroom on used on the forecourt that'll give you a good idea. I've see a RR sport with black interior and I think it looks great. Again, look at 2 year old examples to help make your mind up

RE: Barolo Black with Spirit interior

Thanks for the reply, we have had a Disco 3 with a black interior but had a change when we went to a Freelander 2 and this time had Alpaca interior.

The Evoque might be a bit different due to its smaller interior size.
We are tempted to 'play it safe' and go with the black interior although it would be interesting to see if anyone else has ordered theirs with the Spirit interior.

We like change and like different but dont want to order a potential 'lemon'.

It would be sooo much easier if you could see the combination in the flesh.

RE: Barolo Black with Spirit interior

I have ordered spirit. Pictures look a bit rubbish but I liked it in the flesh and switched from ambiance. It's quite a punchy scheme, but it worked for me!

I think you did the right thing .... Barolo whilst a shade of Black - is still a shade and therefore another colour .... put that in the mix with all the other colours in the Spirit mix and for me it would be just too much. I think Spirit would be OK with an ordinary Black Black car. LR obviously want to sell as many cars as possible so will have chosen their best colour combos for the Live events - Barolo and Ambience being one of them.

Hi Tony

You won't regret your choice. I've ordered a prestige in Barolo black with ambience interior and looks great. Saw it at evoque live and with pan roof and the Macassar wood finisher is the muts nuts. Great choice.

Arrived 16th December 2011: 5 door Prestige SD4 auto in Barolo black with ambience interior, pano roof, privacy and 20" style 6 alloys.Very Happy
