Closeup of Sumatra Black Paint! - vcruiser - 28-11-2011 12:29am

For those of you who are wondering about the different black variants for the evoque, here's a pic with flash that i took that shows all the different sparkles included in the paint!

There is a lot of purple, blue, yellow, and even green.

I thought the Sumatra black was silver flecks and the multi coloured specks is the Santorini Black

That looks distinctively like Santorini. I support Sumatra was supposed to be a 'lesser' paint - it used to be only on the Freelander. Santorini looks very very similar to that.

I went to a dealer on Sat..and asked about Sumatra Black, and was told that cars from 2012 will be Santorini Black...as I pray I will be getting mine at the end of Jan...I guess it will be Santorini Black?

I heard that they changed due to the disaster in Japan, and thats where the factory for the paint was coming from.

Anyone else hear that?

@bbc - don't take this wrong way as I really don't mean anything by it, but search japan or earthquake Android check out all the posts from about 6 months ago.
