 2016 Defender 130 Puma 2.2 HCPU Santorini Black
My first poll- white or Corris XS 110
Here is my dilemma

Go for grey - 6th car in a row ordered in grey or

White with Wolfs and MTR, black arches and grills etc.

My expedition rack will be transferred onto either one. Was going to go for black chequer plate on order but like the entreq stuff better. Wanted premium seats but again, seems a waste for re sale.

I guess it depends on whether your top priority is resale or not. On the whole we're drowning in a sea of grey Land Rovers so it's popular (for which read 'safe'). There's been a bit of a flurry on red or green ones too though, so there's a market for those that are different.

Personally, I think a white/black one as you describe would be very cool. If it's intended as a keeper then dare to be different Twisted Evil Darren

I voted for white, but more because I don't like the dual finish wheels on your grey option...!

The white looks good and I'd be happy with the regular alloys or the HD wheels.

Re: options (seats etc), my view is to get what you want rather than worry about resale. The car is a lot of money, and you should be happy driving it with the toys you want, not worrying about some future resale.

Anyway, I've always found that someone will always use the spec of the car as a reason to haggle on price at resale. Too many options, and they don't want them, not enough and they buy someone else's with the bits on....you cant win.... Very Happy

Buy what you want and enjoy it.

cheers

be different and go for the new blue Thumbs Up (but as that is not on the list then go for white).

look at ickle's gallery for a lovely white 110 with black arches. (just make sure that the roof is colour coded Wink ).

I am biased but white for me (got a 110 CSW in white) as I prefer the traditional look. I do like grey supported by shiney alloys as well.....however white is my vote..sweaty Sweatysock

I would go for the white like the above picture. Saw it at the dealers today and looks very cool indeed. Haven't seen another like it at all. Very mpressive. Was trying to post the same picture before getting to the end of the thread.

For a slight twist on the grey, you could go for 'Havana' - it looks pretty darn good on a 110!

Then you need to choose whether you have carpets or not now too!

Then you have to make the decision to have the audio upgrade. It difficult to believe how much difference it makes!

But, given the choice, I'd go Grey with dual finish wheels and mtr's.

Previously..... Quite a few! I really am a sucker for them!
