"Grand Black Lacquer now extends around central front transmission and stowage compartment on HSE Lux derivatives"

Wonder if it's only on the lux or if it can be factory ordered on the dynamic looking forward to seeing what it looks like! Always thought the Grand Black Lacquer trim was lacking a bit on the car! Don't know if its just me but the dashboards are a greyish look rather than a black!

It certainly used to be an option on the Dynamic to have piano black trim.

I didn't think there was enough piano black, so I bought piano black grab handles from a new MY13 and fitted them.

Chris you can still fit Piano black trim on the dynamic. What I am not sure about tho is that if I was to order it from new would I get the piano black trim around the centre console or is this only exclusive to the HSE Lux How much did you pay for yours... Did you do the whole car including the steering wheel? MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

I only upgraded the handles as the car already had piano black fitted.

Cost me £60 from Dan @ Duckworths.

Piano black was already fitted? What spec is yours? Is it just me or is the dashboard grey and not black in the car! Just hope by fitting the Piano black I don't make the grey dash stand out even more Why can't they have a black dashboard like my Freelander 1 😍 MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

This is supposed to be Loire blue, a photo shop from the LR international site. It's a 13MY Havana brown in the current brochure

NEVER trust a photoshop image by LR. In 2011 I went into a LR dealer asking for a new FL2 in the blue colour in the brochure (which looked a bit like BMW's Estoril Blue) only to be taken outside to a Bali Blue. I told him that Bali Blue was nothing like the colour in the brochure and he confirmed that all of the images of said blue FL2 were artificially produced over an existing image and thus in reality nothing like the colour in the flesh!

Having seen Loire Blue in the showroom (on a Disco) I think it's very close to the Baltic Blue it replaces.

Picture of it on a Range Rover Sport;



Looks really nice from the photo, dealer should have one in in Loire next week for me to have a look at.
