Discovery 4_ Indus silver
If you own a Discovery 4 in Indus silver can you please let me know if it gets dirty easily, shows dust etc.
I am thinking about purchasing a car in that colour and would welcome any advice. We live in a rural area so black, dark blue are a no go.
If you have any photos I would love to see them
Cheers

This mine, easy to spot dust or sand (welcome to the coast) on the black parts but the silver stays remarkably clean..
I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!

Thanks, I’m not too far from you so I’ll not wash it for a week or so and then you can see
Seriously though when the drivers side photo was taken she hadn’t been washed for week, just seems to collect dust on the windscreen
What style are the wheels on the one you are looking at?I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!

You will want to keep it clean and look at it more anyway .
Give it a good polish and wax I few times a year and then it will always come up lovely with a wash 👍

I always thought the advantage of silver is it never needs washed, it just turns to more of a grey.

I think my last truck got washed (by a jetwash crew) 4 times in five years - once they filled up a parking sensor with water, twice they bent the rear parking camera and the only other time I wiped the bumper myself... never againSteve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
