Just specced a 460 dynamic - delivery 6 months….. but questioning if the £10k for preferred paint is worth it (alternative is to have it wrapped ???) - advice please, before ‘no changes’ clause scuppers sensibility.

Wrapped cars have lower resale value in my humble opinion.

Speccing £10k of paint upgrades with not be worth anywhere near that come resale, if anything at all.

Depends on how much cash you’ve got available and what’s important to you in life.

Thanks JonnyCJ - we have to pay +100% tax on cars over in Norway, so the total bill for a RRS 460 is frankly eyewatering.
I may dip back into a base color (and invest in a sturdy road trailer for the inevitable tow home to dealer).

Usually cars that have been wrapped are covered in little cut marks where the wrap has been trimmed, leaving them only fit for a respray or rewrap.

Wrapped cars are ok from 10 feet. Get up close at the joins, it's a different story. Personally it would drive me insane seeing a bad join everyday. Also at resale the dealer or prospective buyer does not know what is underneath. Also not cheap to remove.  Range Rover Sport (gone): Mercedes S63 AMG Coupe: 992 Porsche Carrera 4S: Range Rover Fifty P400e

Whenever I look at a wrapped car I ask myself what it’s hiding.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a wrapped car and thought “that looks nice”.

Classy standard JLR colours however really do make a difference. Love the Orkney and Stornoway Greys on the L320 series, but not familiar with the newer versions.

How about a classic green ?
