Rolls have always had awful colour combinations- but then you can probably specify and colour combination that takes your fancy on the day which can be dangerous.

Many many years ago Land Rover did a Range Rover for my Dad in a Mercedes metallic green colour and it looked absolutely fantastic. So many people commented on how good it looked. I'm pretty sure I saw it at a Land Rover show at Billing many years later but never got to find the owner to see if it was the one.

I wonder if that price is an inflated price, over the RRP, due to a prolonged waiting period for a new RR? I noted a price range as “from around £330k” on an internet site dated Jun 29, 2024.

I was doing an audit of a company a few years back and the guy that owned the company had an impressive car collection, they guy showing me round the company said that the owner had bought his wife a Bentley and she didn't like the colour so it ended up in his collection!

Yep, still wearing my 1991 T-shirt, though I'm shocked to now find out it might be worth ~£100.
