Choosing between Corris and Causeway Grey for MY14
Hi guys,
At last finalizing order about a MY14 D4, so I would appreciate any opinions/thoughts on colour choice: Corris or Causeway (the darker on). I've photoshopped (as no real are available) some pics for you to compare for MY14. Maybe corris is not very close to the real thing but it may help.
Causeway:
Corris:

I actually own a 2013 Lux in Causeway and it is a gorgeous colour but it is very dark... In most lights other than direct sunlight it almost appears black.... However it is excellent in the fact it doesn't show the dirt .... It depends on personal choice.... I suppose if ordinarily you would have chosen the Orkney then Corris is for you....
If it helps my next one will be Corris !!!

Re: Choosing between Corris and Causeway Grey for MY14
Check the Gallery, as I've posted several pictures of my Causeway Grey, although it's a 2013. I love the color as it's not the shiny black like Santorini that's so popular. It's also darker than the popular grey colors like Corris. In some light conditions it does look black, but in others you can tell it's dark grey. I had Stornoway previously, which is a touch lighter than Corris, and I'm glad I switched. You'll see a lot more of Corris than Causeway, partly because of the hefty up charge for Causeway. I don't know which I would've chosen if Corris had been available for 2013, but I knew that Orkney was too light.
Both are great colors, so you can't go wrong.

Thanks for the replies guys!
@horatio8: Thanks horatio! I've already seen your pics, but the colour looks almost black, which from what I understand from everyone's posts, it actually is. If it's not too much trouble, do you think you could post a closer one (you know front and side together... 8) )
@MLC1: Sorry mate, I know my Corris photo is not very accurate (to say the least ), no offence ment, I saw your pics in your recent thread, and I agree it looks brilliant.
Still haven't made up my mind, but I should have by tomorrow night as deposit is sent on the next day...
BTW, I wonder if you get the black pack on the MY14, would you get rid of the silver rings around the fog lights? I really hate them, i think it's a Merc copy that one!

Corris I like but I have seen more of them than Causeway that's maybe why, Corris looks great on any Land Rover I think.

Hey Dave, I really thought you were a Corris supporter! 8)
@Disco_Mikey: I think you're absolutely right there Mikey, light is the most important factor here. Taking into account that Greece is not that cloudy... no I'll think about it a bit longer....
Thanks for all the opinions, keep them coming people - I think it's time for a decision analysis software, only way to solve this!
