I've literally missed about 4 or 5 they seem to be selling quickly at the moment, what are peoples opinions on Epsom Green as a colour on them?, I've seen quite a nice TD6 with decent milage on it and for the right price just can't decide if I like Green though, my favourite colour is Bonati Grey but there don't seem to be many of them for sale at the moment.Black or the Dark Blue are nice too and I would be happy with them, except quite alot of the blue ones have that blue interior which I really don't like.
I might have to start considering a 4.4 at this rate .

Honestly guy's, he's not related to me...

Go with what ever colour you like...

What's your budget and age looking for

The green is nice. Suits the car and a great combo with the light interior IMO.

Budget is around £12k maybe slightly more for the right car, the Green one I saw had grey interior and the Supercharged lights, I'm not sure if I like the colour though really.
First choice would be Grey then Black, but thier both popular and in short supply at the moment.
There's a really nice black 4.4 thats only done 45k miles but had a new engine at 37k which seems odd .

IMHO - Dark Green suits Range Rovers just like Rosso Red suits Ferraris....other colours look may great but with certain car manufacturers they usually have one colour that can be considered traditional

I had a Bonatti Grey TD6 and really liked it - until I saw my current Tonga Green TDV8.

Seen a nice one that's a bit over budget but it's a 55 Reg 4.4, it has the face lift and touch screen nav, I'm not 100% sure but do these have the Jag engine and not the BMW?, what do you get with a facelift one that the previous ones don't have?.
Anyone got any experience of the Jag 4.4 engine?, I've test driven a TD6 and not sure I can live with one now.

When I was on the look out for mine, I didn't want a green one. But then I saw a couple on the roads and knew instantly it had to be Epsom green. Mine has the ivory interior and as Fox says, suits it perfectly. 2006 Mercedes CLS
1991 Retro-style Mini
But really finding it hard to fight the urge for a S/C...

Thanks for the link Avi , I really think I might be better off going for a facelifted one, do they have Bluetooth as standard?.I assume that it will not have any of the BMW running gear left?, although I've mainly reasearched the earlier ones so I'm not too clued up on the Jag engine variants, is the Jag 4.4 as good as the BMW one overall?, might even be a few advantages as it wouldn't have VANOS etc.
It doesn't seem to be a popular engine choice as from what I've read it got discontinued quite quickly i the UK, not really surprising when the TDV8 came out, unfortunatly I can't stretch to one of those.

Personally I really don't like green cars, along with Bournville and Bali Blue. You could always get a new paint job. But then that Involves more £££. If you don't think you will be able to cope with It keep looking, If you can though I say go for It before someone else buys It.

When i was looking black seemed to demand a premium and you did seem to get more for your money with green. Colour's go in and out of fashion so when you come to sell green could be the colour to have, back to my golf gti days you had the MK1 in "lhasa green" the mk2 in "oak green", both very desirable colours.


I got Black FFRR and with the tinted windows i get plenty of drug dealer comments...  2004 black Vogue TD6

It comes down to personal choice at the end of the day, go with the colour you like...

It's worth waiting for other wise you won't be happy...

Ahh memories...I had a MK2 VW Golf GTI 16v in Oak Green... beautiful car - still regret the day I sold it

I don't think I'm that keen on the Green on the RR, although I agree that green on the Mk2 Golf looked amazing ,

Here are a few I've found, would be good to hear peoples opinions on them.

I would guess there's more room for negotiating on the price with the V8s except maybe the 04 reg low mileage one, the last one has the touch screen nav, does this have an iPod connection?, after test driving a TD6 I am very tempted by a V8, mostly because of getting more for your money and I did feel the TD6 was a bit slow and noisy, still none around in Bonati Grey though .
