Cosworth Blue anybody? - XFullFatTim - 29-07-2014 05:05pm
Over on our RRS sister forum there is a thread about a wrapped RRS2 out in Australia that is a very splendid shade of blue. It's a wrap but a very good one and the brushed stainless steel effect roof wrap compliments it well, thread with photos here http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic36732.html Could be easily persuaded to do that to mine, but would leave the roof black, and bumper trims black I think, otherwise too many colours, although I do like the brushed stainless effect on the roof of that one.

Yeah, that looks quite smart

I love that colour. Would have had mine in that if it had been available at the time.
Land Rover should bring that colour out.

Hopefully surplus dot is no longer!

That's a proper Blue, none of that namby pamby Mauritius, or deadly dull Buckingham!

Kahn have been using a similar shade of 'imperial' blue for a number of years on their RR's, along with the brushed roof, so I guess that's where he go the idea for it.

Middle one gets my vote.

That really is a nice shade of blue. I could be very tempted to get that done to mine, price dependent!

I agree with Phil, the current blues are poor.
I saw an old RR Sport in what turned out to be Bali blue, close to the blues shown here and much better that the dull Buckingham/Loire blues.
I do think the RR colour palette is dull. Take out the colours on the white-silver-grey-black axis and what are you left with?
It's about time too that LR offered paint-to-sample as an option...

Have you seen Loire blue in the flesh?
It's very bright and sparkly when the sunlight hits it.
