I have an Orkney Grey with Santorini Black roof 3.0TDV6 Autobiography on order which is due in May. Just been told by the dealer that it has fallen into 2014MY and Orkney Grey has been discontinued! He is suggesting Corris Grey but there are no colour examples available plus I only have until next week before the build specification locks down.... Anyone seen anything about this colour?

I read about Corris Grey on the forum, someone mentioned it. Try search and see if you can find it. MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

That colour will identify it as a 2014 so should be a good idea....

My earlier post http://www.fullfatrr.com/forum/post177729.html#177729

Corris Grey looks to be the same as the old Bonatti Grey (not much help if you don't know that but at least you can search online for a car in Bonatti): darker than Orkney, lighter than Causeway. My local dealer has Corris as a sample. In the USA - don't know about UK - there was announced also a new Scotia Grey but I haven't seen that.
(Edit: same as = when I put the sample brick of Corris on my existing Bonatti L322, I couldn't see any difference) Norman

Current LR: L405 Vogue TDV6 (MY 2014) Aintree Green/ Ivory interior
Past LR: L322 Vogue 4.4 V8 (2002); Discovery series1 V8 (1995)

I am due delivery in May (build in April) - no mention to me on whether I will get MY 13 or 14. What's the difference (other than the colour ranges). My order is a Santorini black vogue. Geoff

Green Land Rover oval badging rather than black, wade depth indicators and rear entertainment system changes are the ones I remember him telling me.

Thanks - vogue doesn't have rear entertainment (screens?) - does that mean it's getting them? Changing Oval colour I'm relaxed about. Depth gauges sound interesting - what's that about? Geoff

No, the screens remain an option across all models. Maximum wade depth appears in your speedo readout and lets you know when you are reaching its limit.

There are other changes, I have the Land Rover factory bulletin to dealers in my office and need to post more details for all

Would appreciate more details. Thanks Vantage. Geoff

Beautiful color combination. i am going to make an order exact same color with black roof next week as well.i think it looks the best with diamond turned 22inc wheels.

i don't think they will discontinue the Orkney grey color from a newly launched car. i've heard of corris grey i saw it in a land rover web site configuration.and the color looked the same as orkney so i thought in some countries they call it corris, and others call orkney.  Just Love Cars..!!

you may see how Corris Grey looks in this configurator. in my countries configuration Corris Grey don't come up.so i'm a bit confused.

i actually like the way it looks.its a bit darker than Orkney.

Does anyone with any insider knowledge know when MY14 will be rolling off the production line then? I only ask my L405 will be ready for me to collect around 27 April and if the OP is going to have one in May that is an MY14 I'll be rather miffed if mine's not.

Are the differences significant/noticeable enough for me to see if I should push back my build a couple of weeks? Or better still does anyone know if my late April car will be MY14?

Thanks Patron, thats given me some comfort that the colour looks good enough to proceed, I prefer it over the Scotia Grey.

Dickie, I doubt you will be able to push back your build with the dealer. If it will be ready for delivery in 5 weeks then it is already in confirmed status and cant be changed, your dealer will be able to tell you which MY it is though. What spec have you gone for and I should be able to tell you if there are any changes from 13 to 14. Visually the only difference is the badging which has gone from black to green for the Land Rover badging

Dickie - you are in the same boat as me - I have an April 17 build slot on a vogue and am wondering what I am going to get. I guess the dealer will argue at least what I ordered! Which in many respects is fair enough. If MY 2014 has a lot more gadgets that I miss out on I will be disappointed and if the spec is lessened (I heard the brake discs were to be reduced on the v6 - which is what I have on order) I will expect a discount or full refund of deposit. I am probably over worrying about this but like you, Dickie, I would like know. I will be reaching out to my dealer to get a better understanding next week. If you can shed any light Vantage, that would be great.

Finally, forgive my ignorance, but why would a 2014 model be introduced in April 2013? Also, to date I have only seen 2 L405s that weren't on a dealer forecourt. Why so early in a run would a model be replaced? What us wrong with the 2013 model, what are they trying to fix? Geoff

Geoff,
I've also got a V6 Vogue on order. I don't think there's a massive difference between the MY13 and 14 (I hope!) but perhaps it's main sorting out some niggles that have cropped up on the first batch - although not seen a great deal of evidence for that to be fair.

I'll be making a quick phone call to dealer on Monday to see what the plan is though. As you say it's most likely too late now to put the build back though. We shall see....
