Also, what colour have you chosen or will be chosen?

I have been thinking of Aintree Green. If non metallic British Racing Green would have been an option I would have had no difficulties to choose. I have seen only a couple of Aintree Green Land Rovers and they do seem a bit posh. What do you think, would Aintree Green be a decent option?

I've just checked and there are 4 different shades of grey now, along with silver and near silvers! Very German! Rolling Eyes

My best vaguely educated guess would be Waitomo Grey. I don't think that classic Land Rover colours, like Aintree, will suit a D5; this is a car that will be best suited to a shade of grey, silver or, possibly, black.

If it is Waitomo Grey, it suits the D5's design well.

It's definitely got a "black pack"

I'm going for Corris Grey with 20" wheel black pack option

Corris or possibly the Range Rover Bosphorus , the 2nd and 4th look lighter than the other pucs

The orange I saw at Les Comes in October suited it.

I wasn't so keen on the orange at Les Comes. I thought it emphasised the vehicle's bulk, especially around the front corners.

The dark grey looks good, but then dark grey / black is known to be "slimming".

Another one for Orange Thumbs Up

I would say that's Corris Grey. I think LRs colour palette is pretty woeful, hence I've chosen Orange. I like Loire Blue but I'm on my second one, I would prefer a lighter shade like Mauritius Blue
