After much deliberation I recently purchased a new 90 in Corris Grey with Black Pack. Premium leather seats etc.

It isn't due for a while......but I have been recently lured towards a new 90 Keswick Green with Black Pack and same additions.

The dealer offering the Keswick though is demanding a good $5k above the Corris.....and I would have to pretty much walk away from a small deposit that secured the Corris.

So would you do it? The Keswick appears to enjoy a fair bit of popularity on this forum.

Also, what is the general view here of the black sawtooth alloys as opposed to the more usual silver alloys or steel wheels?

I am new to Defender (outside of having a few decaying and non-functioning Series ll on the farm) so unsure as to the popularity of the various colours and views concerning the wheels etc.

cheers

Colour choice is important. I chose silver because the vehicle was on the lot and great deal, when I was really looking for white. White was 5K more. Now I prefer silver anyway! But it doesn't really matter in the end. Both your options are good colours, it's not like one is pink! Corris looks more modern, Keswick is classic. Which do you prefer?

If you really want Keswick, offer the new dealer the same money as the first deal. Have you told him about your other order? I wouldn't, but I would say there is another available 5K less. Nothing to lose if you walk away. If new deal comes close and you can afford to lose deposit do it, but make sure you have at least one in the bag and that you can get out of contract on other one.

If you can get a better price with HD steel rims and dump the sawtooths I would do that. They are more classic.

I would recommending discussing this with your dealer first to see if they are agreeable to terminating the contract. You are bound by Contract Law, the deposit is not really a "disposable deposit" it is your "consideration" that turns your Agreement into an enforceable Contract.
You wouldn't want to find out that the dealer is prepared to enforce the contract though court action... I don't know anyone who has been in this position so don't really know what is the accepted practice in the trade...

Welcome to the forum.

I see your dilemma, mmmmm choices green or grey?

I would personally go with the colour that suits your handbag, shoes and makeup the best. That would probably be the grey, it's easy to match up and will go with just about any purse.

Ha ha ha you asked for it.

Mate they are both good colours but are you buying for your preference or for what it will look like to others while your driving over the harbour bridge and downtown Kirribilli. Either colour will look good in front of your paleo organic hipster cafe.

Seriously, congrats on the new 90 and don't worry about what other people think.

P.S If you don't like the sawtooth I'll swap you for some black diamond turn alloys, those sawtooth are ugly. Ha ha ha
