Carpathian Paint
Hi and sorry for what maybe a daft question.

Is the Carpathian paint on the Carpathian Edition a satin finish or is the satin finish a wrap?

I can’t see the wrap as an option so gonna contact the dealer and ask as they have one in the showroom Thumbs Up Gas, Grass Or Ass - Nobody Rides For Free

It’s not an option, it’s the finish on the Carpathian Edition.

Good idea to go and see it. If you don’t like it then you can just go for the standard car in Carpathian Grey with no satin finish Thumbs Up Cheers, David

Ahh I thought so.

So the std V8 comes in normal Carpathian or Black paint but the Carpathian Edition comes in the satin Carpathian paint/wrap Whistle Thumbs Up Whistle Gas, Grass Or Ass - Nobody Rides For Free

One advantage potentially is that you have a wrapped car as standard whereas if you wrap a car after delivery it is regarded as a modification by insurers, many of which will refuse cover I found. Crazy I know. I might have gone for a wrapped car from the factory but they only do the satin finish which I don’t like.

Not sure we have the answer. Thought it was carpatian paint (as normal) with a satin (matt) wrap.

Is the black bonnet (roof and rear door) wrapped as well?

Seriously thinking swopping my d250 for one of these. Similar road tax, insurance is @ £100 pa more so the man maths is working! Little bit more expensive (!) is only hurdle.

Wrap coverage
@PlumpMoose, the wrap is only on the grey color (essentially the forward doors and front fenders),

The hood, roof, rear door and lower trim on the sides are black colored and have no PPF/wrap.
