When did that exactly come out of fashion?

We are talking non-metallic BRG, proper yellow magnolia and deeply burled walnut.

The current XK has gone silver/black perforated leather (ideally with my pet hate: red stitching) and "piano back" or "carbon" or "engine tuned plasticalloy" from the beginning. The current Conti GTs have gone the same way. DB9s and Vantages mostly have "sporty" colour schemes.

You no longer fit the profile of the customer to whom they wish to sell the cars.

Only young (or modern-minded) people may now apply.

Goodbye!

maybe

But what is wrong with the aforementioned colour scheme?

You wouldn't see it in a German car, therefore, no-one wants it.

It's a classic British look, though I must say my preference is for BRG with cream leather and a walnut or similar dash. Classic Jaguar scheme.

There is one Vantage on offer (in France, near the German border) in BRG/creme, tempting.

Guy, j'adore lire tes contributions, c'est phénoménal! Tu viens de quel coin de France ?

But I think the correct answer has already been given, you do not fit the typical customer profile these days methinks smile
