Congrats on the 110, it will be cool.

Thanks, I look forward to it.

Did you order it with a white roof by any chance (my favourite combination - dark green with a white roof)?

This was preordered by the dealer (he likes green ones too) so I didn't have a choice regarding roof colour. Otherwise I would have.

It was my understanding that MY11 Galway Green Defenders came standard with a white roof. Green is a great colour for a Defender, irrespective of the roof colour.

Only solid colours, i.e. Fuji, Tamar and Keswick, have a white roof and black wheel arches. All metallics have body colour roof and arches.

They are great people to deal with mate. We did a similar thing last year. We rang ever dealer listed on the Land Rover Aus web site on the east coast looking for anyone who had something other than white The boss said, get a new one, but not white

Tony Ireland had a stornaway grey in stock, so we snaffled it straight away & everything else was easy. They had everything ready to go when we arrived up there to pick it up. Hand over was done early on our request & they had no hesitations or problems.

We love ours, happy driving when it turns up mate. I couldn't wait that long it would near kill me Look forward to seeing it when it does.

That was the situation but not any more:

Tamar Blue (solid) - blue roof
Galway Green (metalic)- white roof
Santorini Black (metalic)- white roof
Stornoway Grey (metalic)- white roof

You can check these on both the LRUK and LRAu websites.

I think mine is called Keswick Green (but it was bought a few years ago and am not 100% sure of the colour name....) but definitely metallic dark green with a white roof:
