Looks pretty much like Firenze Red to me. It is still a current colour option and originally replaced Rimini Red.

+1 for Firenze red Jules

My favourite colour for a landrover 😍 Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

2014 Orkney grey Freelander SD4 GS.
2004 Zambezi silver Discovery 2 Td5 (Gone)
1963 Surf blue Morris Mini Minor Super de Luxe (my little toy)

other colours are available, than black or silver .....

Mine is that colour - under it's coating of grime that's liberally applied.

okay I get the idea . . . its as common as muck

But I stick by what I said, I have never seen one, I quite often see that metallic red, which I must admit sometimes looks good and sometimes does not (to me).


Really like the look of this car, if it was 10 miles down the road I would have a good look, but there is no way I fancy a trip to the midlands at ANY time in my life . . .  2017 SEAT Ateca 4drive 2.0 xcellence (May 2022 -

OI !!!! im from Dudley (sort of)

Northcroft, you do need to get out more,,,,,,all the way to Netherton mate,
come on she's waiting for you,

A sweet colour that


on another note...what does it mean by = Emissions to clean for test? DAVE.

It means that the Mot test equipment registers an error during the exhaust smoke test as the DPF is doing its job so well that the test machine cannot get a reading from the exhaust!

In the States we call that Candy Apple Red.
