Wrong Colour!

My RRS is at the dealers today to have the final work to bring it back to new.....the front near side corner of the bumper painting ( it was scuffed on a car park barrier), on collecting it at lunch time......it has been painted the wrong colour!

Easy to spot straight away and it was sat in the car park ready for me to pick up!

No one else had spotted it / they hoped I wouldn't notice.

It was bluish silver.

Anyway going back for it re-done at 5pm.

Lol, maybe the original colour is wrong............................................. you would think a dealership would know where to find the right paint shade details for the car! Suspect they have used Zambesi instead of Zermatt 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

@Tim Rolling with laughter ....... You can just see it now...... "I'm very sorry Sir, but clearly the car was originally painted the wrong colour! We have painted the repair in the correct colour. If you'd like we could repaint the car to match the repaired area for a meare £(squillions) of quid" Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter 2013 Discovery HSE Luxury - 3.0 SDV6 - Santorini Black

Yes I also suspect Zambezi instead or Zermatt.

And it was a main dealer (where I bought the car from)

I don't believe that when something is painted there is no form of quality control.

Surely someone would sign off the work and clear as day it is the wrong colour.....

disappointing

Jonny, I applaud your apparant calmness Thumbs Up Thumbs Up
I think "disapointing" is an understatement. I'd be furious! You should
take a Colour Blindness Chart with you when you take the car back
and ask the service manager if he would mind using it on himself and his staff Rolling Eyes Wink 2013 Discovery HSE Luxury - 3.0 SDV6 - Santorini Black

Well I couldn't get it done down south as they wouldn't be able to hold the paint sprayer up with their limp wrists Whistle
