Grassmere Green...
Grasmere Green!

Personally, I love it, having had both a Heritage Defender 90, as well as a 75th Anniversary 90 663.

So... I have to ask the question...

Why is Grasmere Green loved on the Heritage with matching Grasmere Green wheels... but seemingly 'hated' or at the least divisive on the new Defender 663 75th Anniversary, where in particular, the Grasmere Green wheels attract SO much criticism?!

I don't get this love/hate duopoly... Grasmere Green has so much anecdotal history with respect to Landrover!

I would really like to understand the rational about this divergance...!?

Cheers all,

Pete :>) YOLO... You Only Live Once...

Beauty is in the eye beholder... to me that colour combination doesn't go well with the L663, a bit mint aero.

Objectively, it was over 10k USD more expensive than the HSE which it was based on.. for a bit of paint and some stickers. That just reeked to me. 22MY Defender 110 D300 S in Pangea Green and Contrast White Roof

I’m personally not a fan of it. Feels like it’s just there, right in your face! Confused

Loved the look including the wheels, the black wheels don’t do it for me, but it was way over priced here in the UK, you could spec up an HSE, which it is basically, to the same level and still be about £10k+ cheaper. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue
