Does anybody know which of the old colours have been reintroduced recently? My car is not due now until late November and I ordered Indus Silver when I heard that Zermatt would not be available. Would prefer Zermatt if it is back on the menu....
thanks

Colours are as follows;
Aintree Green
Galway Green
Siberian Silver
Baltic Blue
Indus Silver
Sumatra Black
Bournville
Ipenema Sand
Buckingham Blue
Firenze Red
Fuji White
Maramris Teal
Nara Bronze
Orkney Grey
Hope this helps. "UNDERSTEER" ---is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" -is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" ------------is how far you take the fence with you.

Only posting what is in the brochure and understand the LR "build" option is still showing the 2011MY details with the limited colour options 
I know Firenze Red and Nara Bronze have been re-introduced and the Siberian Silver is on the list, as for what the list Calcul@tor has said I dont know even though the brochure says lots in the small print, but the option on Silver is as the brochure says so answeres RobW1098's question anyway  "UNDERSTEER" ---is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" -is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" ------------is how far you take the fence with you.

When i was in the dealership about 2 weeks ago the salesman said that mine was one of the last Baltic Blues he sold and he didn't think it was being reintroduced until next year, he's still trying to convince me it was a limited edition colour  Cheers Ian

I think all dealers and especially those involved in sales should go on a course entitled "Customers are not Muppets" - they could start by looking on this forum to see that D3/D4 owners have a modicum of sense
Baltic Blue a "limited edition" colour indeed "UNDERSTEER" ---is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" -is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" ------------is how far you take the fence with you.
