Hi gsydave

I think the problem can best be summed up in one question to you, do you like white? White might take a bigger hit on resale if it does not catch on, but it is supposed to be the new cool colour.

Chris.

Go for it, so long as they are doing it for the same price or less than the SE. They must be having a problem shifting it. White isn't the nicest colour for an F2,






































but you could do worse and have a Black one......................... so boring and so many of them. Stornoway Grey, Tonga Green or Rimini Red are the colours to go for if you decide not to have the white one!

Gone but will be missed- RRS Tdv8 HSE Stornoway Grey with Ebony Leather

Go with your feelings,

I have a Whistler white,

Insurance is cheaper for me as its a colour that shows on the rd,

its a popular colour in Aussie,seen some at the dealer,but mostly grey on the rd

resale value is not a worry as wanted freedom of choice of colour that suits.

Try to be patient for the colour you want if white is not your up of tea.

I think white does look good for the freelander 2,but thats here in Australia.
