Car Magazine Long Term Test

Car Magazine have started a long term test of a SD4 Dynamic Coupe but they have got off to a bad start with a vile (IMHO) choice of colour and trim...

- Mauritius Blue (fine on its own)
- Black and RED seats (fine with black, red maybe but blue?)
- Ivory headliner.

It looks like a dog's breakfast but hopefully the reviewer will be able to see beyond the cosmetics.

Here's a link...

Evoque was great, now in an RRS SVR

That is one terrible colour combo, not a fan of the Blue anyway but with that interior.... No, no no no no!!

I think it's a Cirus headliner though.

Way too many interior colours...................... bet it looses a fortune when they sell it on!
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.

I think they need a "car stylist". They'd have many volunteers from here I am sure!

They gave it to the magazine because they couldn't find anyone to buy it.
