Hi, I have a V8 diesel RRS in Zermatt which I am going to trade in for the new V6 RRS. New RRS are not now available in V8, but we have seen a 3 month old model V8 in Ipanema sand, which is an ex-demo with 1600 miles on the clock. I am not convinced of the colour, what do you think? Should I V8 or V6?

Yes ! Go for it - be different 2016 MY16.5 HSE, 21" Rims, Waitamo Grey, Cirrus Leather, Extended Leather, Meridian sound

i ain't no dizzy rascal

I'm a but worried what happens at trade in, in 3 years with a less popular colour

In 3 years time it might be popular

If you get a decent deal this will balance any reduction at trade in.
It's a nice colour and to be honest all RRS look good (apart from black which is plain boring) 2016 MY16.5 HSE, 21" Rims, Waitamo Grey, Cirrus Leather, Extended Leather, Meridian sound

I wouldn't worry, I went for one of the most unpopular colours in its day....Rimini Red....to this day, and for me, one of the most stunning colours available and a nice break from the norm with all the Blacks / Silvers etc

When it came to selling...........sold within a few weeks as opposed to maybe a week with the more common colours.  L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now!

Whats the spec of your current RRS? I'm in the market for a 3.6 V8 at the moment and may be able to give you a better price?

Ipanema is a lovely colour and makes a change from all the Zambesi/Zermatt and Black RRS's that are out there.
My first RRS was a Giverny Green one, everybody told me it would be difficult to sell on but it lasted a week on the dealer's forecourt, it was just the different colour that somebody else wanted because it wasn't black or silver! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
