Land-Rover Range Rover Paint Info
The Color Breakdown
Land Rover didn't just pick a palette; they curated a global travel itinerary. With 184 recorded colors, they really went for it-offering everything from the high-energy Vesuvius Orange Metallic to the quintessential British Racing Green. Of course, they also provide what feels like 50 shades of grey (looking at you, Stornoway, Corris, and Carpathian), ensuring every Range Rover looks just as home in a muddy field as it does at a gala.
What to Watch For
These vehicles are built with a lot of aluminum, which is great for weight but can be a bit "dramatic" when it comes to paint. Keep a close eye on your door handles and the edges of the tailgate; the paint here tends to bubble if a stone chip lets a little moisture underneath. You might also notice the clear coat getting a bit tired on the roof or hood if it spends too much time in the sun. Before you start your repair, hunt down your paint code-it's usually hiding on a black sticker on the driver's side door jamb or tucked away under the hood on the radiator support bar. It'll be a three-digit code, sometimes starting with "LRC."
Driveway Repair Tip
Since Range Rover loves those deep, complex pearl finishes, your touch-up bottle is basically a tiny snow globe of liquid jewelry. Shake that bottle for at least 60 seconds-longer than you think you need-to wake up all those metallic flakes so they don't stay settled at the bottom. When you go to apply it, remember: patience is your best tool. Instead of trying to fill a chip with one big glob, apply two or three very thin layers. It might take a bit longer, but it ensures those elegant sparkles lay down flat and look like they came straight from the factory.
