Thank goodness you don't want Giverny Green..................... there are about 20 in the whole UK and they are getting far too common!  2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Tim, if I ever win the lottery, I quite fancy a giverny RRS, then you won't be the only giverny green RRS driver in the UK on the forums  2002 Discovery Adventurer LE

I am not alone here, there are 2 others from the UK I think and 2 or 3 from the USA. 10 days ago I passed a convoy of 3 RRS's all towing large sailboats when I was coming home from Lochgilphead. As LR sponsor the racing for that class I suspect that Giverny Green or Arctic Frost (not sure which they were) Sports are on the sponsorship fleet! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I've always thought if I was to buy a new Land Rover, it would have to be green! 2002 Discovery Adventurer LE

Epson Green is the colour - but they have discontinued it! It's a very dark metallic green. This is "scratched" Epsom

We bought plot number 13 on a new house devolopment, we were looking at the plot where the house would be, and the old man who would be our next door neighbour came out and started attacking us with his walking stick for parking too near his house . We argued that it was nowhere near, and he said he wouldn't be able to get his car off the drive. There wasn't a car on the drive . As you can probably imagine we didn't go through with the deal

BTW Tim, your Defender looks awesome, 2 green Landys, life must be heaven  2002 Discovery Adventurer LE

Tim, your 90 is far too shiny. We must try and sort that out tomorrow

On the subject of Epson Green, I've looked at a 2003 Epson Green FFRR TD6 at my main stealers a couple of times now. It's bloody gorgous and even has the right interior. Will be sorely tempted if there are any similar FFRRs available when I start looking in earnet in October

BTW I reckon the Epson Green on your 90 is standing up better than the Rojia Red on our 90  Bill

Ummm, take a close up look and you would think differently!

The Epson FFRR you looked at................. what colour is the interior. Before I bought mine I looked at an Epsom with Aspen leather and carpets and it was not a very nice interior....................... charcoal or sand would look better. The Aspen that LR used on the FFRR is much more "leaf" green than my Sport's "mossy" green Aspen 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

It's charcoal. I've looked at a few 2003 FFRRs in the last month or so and the Epsom Green/Charcoal combination is by far the one best suited to my tastes. Oslo Blue/Charcoal looks good too but doesn't quite press the buttons as much as the Epsom.

As you can tell I like my Charcoal insides  Bill

I've got a givernny green sport on order and can't wait, only 6 weeks to go!

I've only seen one other on the road. 2014 Nara Bronze SDV6
GONE TDV6 HSE RRS in Giverny green,Ebony interior, Side steps,Tints, PTI, Tow pack, mud flaps, Side strips and Dynamics pack.

IMHO I dont think there is a bad colour for the RRS - hence its so hard to choose

There is one yukky colour............................. Maya Gold (was discontinued very early on in the life of the car!). RRS looks awful in Gold! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

and I bet some mug was dared into choosing it by a dealer so they could see it
