JLR rationised their paint names around 2018, I believe. My Glacier White became Yulong White back then.

That's for the heads up, Interesting, the dealer had it listed as Carpathian.....but either way I like it. Our Defender is Carpathian so that makes sense.

The facelift cars (MY21 and newer) definitely had a Carpathian Gray as an option.

I do love that Carpathian colour though. It still haunts me a bit, making me wondering if I made the right choice ;-0

On MY18 I actually wanted the Coris grey but the one I found was the Carpathian grey….and it’s grown on me. Had a silver car when I was younger and was looking for something different, and don’t regret the grey on the F-type. Below’s link is the brochure for 2018 and you can see all the colors it came in.

I only noticed this after like a year of ownership, but where Eiger really shines is at dusk. It’s gives off some oddly beautiful purplish hues or something. Was washing my car one day a bit late and noticed it. That’s when ya realize it’s not a normal grey. It’s pretty cool.

I'm currently looking for my F type. Always been partial to silver hues and am focusing on the ammonite gray and/or rhodium silver with chrome wheels. Only a few F types here in the general KC area to go and look at in person, and those are black, BRG, white, and red.
So, my search is pretty much online and looking at the ad pictures which are very inconsistent due to lighting and picture quality. I know I'll be traveling to purchase so I need to be 100% sure of the color choice before committing.
Mostly considering the rhodium silver, however, some pictures I see (and there are more of this color available to choose from) have me leaning towards the ammonite gray. Also, forgive me, but I'm also very much a fan of the color of the AM DB10 in Specter and trying to figure out if the gray or silver F type is closer to that 'skyfall/spectre silver' which seems to be a bit in between.
I know asking for opinions on color choice is very subjective but I'd be grateful if those with silver or gray F types could share their opinions on why you chose that color. Which one, in real life, shows off the lines better?
