Good to see one in a proper colour. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

Here in Blighty hard water shows up limescale marks on very dark coloured paintwork which is why I chose White as it dries without marks when washed, 2013 FL2 XS.

In the 90’s white cars were frowned on . They were seen as poverty spec . Our works fleet buyer hated them as they had low residuals . Then it all changed . I think white is THE colour to have . It looks great on every LR ever made , I had a smashing County 90 in Alpine White . The pearl white on my last Audi and current Scooby were / are sublime . There is also a serious safety side to white , even the myopic can see a white motor . I lost count of the number of times I had cars pull out on me in the black and metallic greys and dark silver cars I owned . Even DRLs made no difference when the cars were ‘ road coloured ! Long live white ! 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

Down under, people used to buy white as they are a bit cooler. Now with air conditioning people are not so worried, or more likely forgotten ancient wisdom! I see it as anything to help the heat situation is good when it's mid to high forty degrees celsius.

They are cooler inside! We can leave the windows open a touch for ventilation with wind shields, so not really visible.
