2011 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Buckingham Blue

Is my motor Buckingham or Baltic Blue?

Paperwork not clear and confused....
So, what is it?

I think it’s Buck as per Topix

PS Took 4 hours to wash, polish and wax to get that shine

Looks like Buckingham Blue to me, my L322 and first RRS were that colour and one I rather like.

Ours is Baltic Blue...

Yours definitely looks like Buckingham Blue, we had a Buckingham Blue D3 which almost looked black when it was nearly dark.

Baltic Blue glows and “sparkles “ in the sunshine when it is clean.

I have only spotted 3 or 4 Baltic’s since I bought mine nearly 4 years ago.
I have yet to see one with privacy glass fitted.

You will have same trouble as I did if you need touch up paint though, LR don’t do one for our model year. I think the shade changed ever so slightly compared to Buckingham Blue on older models. Bet it’s a right pain for spray shops. 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8
