England 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Auto Santorini Black

I think so, the latest model I've seen has been on an 08 plate. Speaking of sightings, I spotted a Bali Blue MY11 SD4 HSE, the first one I've seen. Very Happy it looks great, shame they discontinued it. Crying or Very sad

United Kingdom 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Auto Bali Blue

Bali Blue does look great and not just due to the fact that I own one Whistle

LR dropped the colour not long into the 2011 model year so there are not many around, in the 2 years I have owned mine I have seen just 1 other so if you want to be quite unique on the road then Bali Blue is the way to go!

Mine is in for service today and I have a grey FL2 and think the colour looks really nice, its a light grey thats almost silver in some light - is this Orkney Grey?? Looking to change my FL2 early next year for a Dynamic SD4 and after having a look at the colours available im only coming up with grey or the new blue Now - 2017 BMW X3 M Sport Carbon Black
Gone - 2014 BMW X3 M Sport Space Grey, faultless!
Gone - 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Bali Blue with xenons
Gone - 2008 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Rimini Red with bodykit

England 2008 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto Stornoway Grey

I like the orange and red versions, also the pure white. Tricia and I had always agreed that we'd never have a grey car - then we saw the Stornoway Grey and both loved it! Seems to be popular on here too, hopefully it will be easy to sell in around ten years or so........... Ours - 2008 Stornoway Grey HSE Auto
Tricia's - 2006 Royal Blue Beetle Cabriolet Auto
Mine - 2014 Vespa GTS 300 Super Sport Matt Black
Ours - 2007 White Bailey Pageant Champagne

Why did they discontinue it? Was it due to the Japanese Tsunami?

Lago Grey was dropped due to the Tsunami as was Stornoway Grey, they tried to fill the gap with Orkney Grey.

The tsunami or the resulted radiationfrom the nuke plant, can't remember which wiped out the company that manufactured a pigment or something like an ingredient of the paint Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

United Kingdom 2013 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Galway Green

Aintree Green.

But I would say that having ordered my replacement FL2 in that colour. Cool

For me it was a choice between that and the Mauritius Blue, but when I looked at them side by side in the dealers I thought the Aintree Green had something about it. I think it was the depth of colour and shine; made the car look really sumptuous.

2010 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Lux Auto Stornoway Grey

Lago Grey - despite the stupid name - is cooler than a cool day in cooldom. Far better than Throwaway Grey that others seem to favour....

Hard to say what my favourite colour is, white was one of them till they brought a whiter than white out and my wife bought one and parked next to me

Stornoway was a great colour, but I would say Havana is my fave at the moment Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Wanted it on my Evoque but wasn't available to order until November 2011, so when I decided to come back to a Freelander that was the first option to be ticked.

Only ever seen the Evoque out on the road in Mauritius blue. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200
