I would like to purchase, but cannot find my hearts desire ~ is black the only color they come in? I do not want black, they are elegant, but PITA to keep clean. What is your favorite color?

 

Italian racing red, British Racing Green ( metallic - 2013)

^^^ gorgeous colors I have been waiting far tooooooooooooooo long for the right one to become available , so am hoping to purchase as soon as possible ~ where can I find those colors

 

I'd want it painted blaaaack.

 

My vote goes to Shadow Grey, exclusive to the 4.2L 2009 XKR Portfolio models. It changes with the sunlight.



​​​Tastefully paired with Ivory and Slate interior. Old school traditional British luxury, real wood veneer and genuine leather almost everywhere.

No tinfoil or carbon fiber for me. Just my old guy taste, others will disagree. That's why JLR offers other choices, including Spun Aluminium and CF.

 

ultimate black metallic but my 2nd option would be British racing green

 

Pearl Metallic is NOT black. Easy to care for also.

 

Lunar Grey Metallic - All The Way!! Changes colors with the sun and different variations of the type of sunlight while out and about.












All Photos were taken at different times of the year and day with an IPhone 11 - no alterations whatsoever.

 

^^^ yup that …it’s not the Tesla grey. Looks awesome in sunlight,

 

Radiance Red Metallic is what I have, but if I had known about Emerald Fire before I bought mine, I may have just held out for that beauty.

 

Dark Sapphire Blue Metallic.

 

But that's not lunar grey.

 

He’s pointing up, to the earlier post.

 

While we're on the subject of color, I could use your help. When I bought the car a couple of months ago, I was really annoyed by the front bumper color. It didn't match the rest of the car, especially the hood.

I've repainted the bumper twice (two different body shops) since then, but I'm still not happy with the result.

Looking at the color code, my car should be in liquid silver. Both times the color for bumper was mixed on spot because apparently the hood is not in its original color.

This is how it looks most of the time:


But sometimes it would look good:


Also, I've noticed from looking at many XK pictures online that there's often a color mismatch between the bumper and the hood, even in some official Jaguar release photos. Not sure why?

How would you resolve this issue? Is the whole car respray my only option to make it right?

 

He describes it in his signature as lunar grey.
