I really like the look of your Stornoway grey RRS Tim, but I don't think I could keep the Ivory interior looking smart for long.

So it looks like it will have to be either Stornoway Grey (which I really like) or Nara Bronze which everyone else seems to like (although not everyone has actually chosen this colour for their on RRS) and Ebony leather interior.

So much for my attempt to get away from Black interiors for a change. Sad

Until that is, someone suggests an even better colour combination. Big Cry

Nara Bronze. If your dealer really cares he/she will make it happen for you (re: extended leather cost).

Problem solved, and I hope i do not live to regret it.

Today I paid a deposit on a new Range Rover Sport TDV6 in Stornoway grey with Ebony premium leather interior. Waiting now for a delivery date and any flack against my un-colourfull colour choices.

Starting to feel excited already. Very Happy

You won't regret it, I am positive. That's a very attractive colour combination, and Ebony premium leather is classy. Come resale it will be a good colour combination to attract buyers too, so definately not a bad choice at all! You must be very excitied, shame you will haver to wait 14 weeks...

How much discount did you get, or are you not allowed to say? Embarassed

Thanks for the support of my colour choice lard, I'm even more excited after reading your post as delivery is expected mid to end of October. Had I confirmed the order a few days later you're 14 weeks prediction would have been correct.

As for discount, I've no idea as the only price I was interested in was the price to change as I was PXing my present car for the RRS. The deal was not as good as I had hoped for, but near enough to make it acceptable. Considering another garage was offering much less for my car I'm rather please.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

I can back that up, you will like the combination and yes when selling on time comes it's a very safe combo too. Which wood finish did you opt for, hopefully not Grand Black...................... 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

The configurator chose Straight Grained Walnut so that's what I went for.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Thumbs Up Cannot be having too much black on the inside! That was the "timber" that was on my TDv8 and it was nice but it sure wasn't real as it had some razor sharp edges in places! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HST Stornoway Grey
colours

I have the Stornaway Grey with Grey and black leather inside.

Ideally would have had cream leater on the inside but bought the beast second hand from a dealer and the car came up from Midlands.

Also quite like the Salsa Red as it is distinctive. Gold has gone right out of fashion, personally.

You can add tasteful modifications as u go along. Mine has the infill or mesh grill which I prefer.

All matter of choice. I wouldn't alter the alloys from the original - been told it devalues the car, and thse can go out of fashion too.

Hope this helps.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Stornoway comes colour coded from the factory too.Look closely and the grey plastic is a very close colour match to the rest of the body............................. if you like that sort of thing then it won't cost extra if you have Stornoway!
It also can go for weeks and weeks between washes without looking dirty if you aren't a car washing fanatic

Saw a very nice Nara RRS TDv6 with the DPF straight tail pipes this morning in Stirling, the rear looks much better with the straight out chrome effect pipes on each side. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
