    Eiger Grey

    Anyone spotted, or received an Eiger Grey build yet, or know when to expect to see them?

    We'll take delivery of ours in about 4 weeks time, and having our order updated from Corris to Eiger, the swatches and a paint card we had sprayed are all we have to go from. Will actually be nice to see it on the car, so to speak.

    See quite a few Eiger Grey Evoque’s. It’s only available on the First Edition cars. Looks great with black design kit and black wheels.

    This style of grey seems to be the new trendy colour to have (all a slightly different grey of course) from many marques.

    For anyone just interested in the colour, here are some Jags that I've found pictures of on the other forums/twitter. I loved Corris, and was a bit disappointed when the dealer said we had to have Eiger, but I must say that I'm more drawn to Eiger now!

    First production build LR (albeit RRS) I've found, gives a good idea of colour over size

    Looks a little lighter then I was expecting but doesn't look bad with the black wheels.

    Anyone seen Eiger Grey and Silicon Silver together in person and render an opinion on the difference? They look awfully close on-line.

    edit: take that back a little, Silicon Silver seems to have touches of... beige?

    Silicon silver is more the color of ‘goldish’ sand if that would make sense

    To make it more clear or difficult: here a picture with a part in the sun: the gold hue
    And a part in the shade: grey hue

    My pleasure, here the full one, but in vivo it’s definitely more goldish.
    We like the color a lot, it is definitely not grey as you might think on most pictures.

    Had almost the same color on our D4 in RSA, scratched it only once (not taking into account the numerous torn bush ones), and was no problem to have it fixed:





    We still have the best memories from your country, and really looking forward to Eastern Africa somewhere next year if all goes well!



    The Drakensbergen are soo beautiful!!

    Nice and thank you. Where in Eastern Africa do you plan to go?

    I know the colour you had on the D4. This Eiger Grey seems more like a pearl type colour. Either way its really nice.
