RE: Ipanem Sand Prestige

It's hard to tell from the pics, but in real life, does Ipanema Sand have any beige/yellow in it,or is it a shade of grey,that is slightly darker then Indus Silver? The name suggests it not a shade of grey,and that it has tinge of beige/yellow in it.

Its a silver that in the right light looks like it has a champagne tinge to it. Photos don't do it justice, but I'm biased

RE: Ipanem Sand Prestige

That sounds like it does have a yellow/beige tinge to it then. To put it another way, would it fall between Indus Silver & Orkney Grey, or is it infact a light champagne?

OK so it isn't an Evoque, here is lots of Ipanema sprayed onto a FFRR to give you an idea

and a D4

It's more like the shade that LR used to call White Gold.

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 i might have to go into the dealer, and have a look at the samples, and they may even have an RR with it too. cheers.

RE: Ipanem Sand Prestige

Thanks Tim, i get the idea now...and white gold probably confirms it is really not a shade of grey.
I think i'll stick with Indus,but am leaning towards a Sumatra black roof.
The problem is...this thing is so damb desirable,that i love alot of different combinations they have on offer,and it's starting to drive me nuts.

Yep....went and saw it today, and while i quite like the touch of gold, I prefer the industrial tech look of Indus Silver more. What i did upgrade to though,was a black roof, and also went from Style 6 to style 7 shadow chrome 20'' alloys.

RE: Ipanem Sand Prestige

I had a Disco 3 in Ipanema Sand and it was a terrific car to keep clean, in the countryside the dirt & dust seemed to match it's colouring exceptionally well & it always looked clean irrespective if it was not...good choice, I'm sure those of you that spec this colour with a Dynamic model, with that models black trim highlights, will be absolutely delighted for sure. The only interior colour way to go with it is ivory or black IMHO as it's champagne in colour...

Ipanema is a desert in South America, I'm sure I recall LR advising me that's how they got the name for this colour!

RE: Ipanem Sand Prestige

That's encouraging spiderman as I have spec'ed as you can see below. I changed to ambiance recently as I thought the ivory would be better than tan. Thanks for your input.
