White Car?

A white car could save you lots of money - in speeding fines. The person in front will think (when they look in their mirror) 'oh, that might be a police car!' and then they slow down.

not round here the pigs have got silver focus estates.

some cars white good,astra vxr,focus st and my personal favourite scooby sti.

black looks good when new but soon after looks crap with swirl marks and scratches.

I've got a white car! New Fiesta Zetec-S, my personal opinion is that it is best colour for this model.

The frozen white on the Focus is a nice colour

I think really, we're discussing two different things here.

Modern, pearlescent white.
And old, crap "flat white."

The modern whites look very nice, metalic/pearl and looks very nice on some cars.
Old crap "standard white" still rings a poverty specification car to me.

Colour is subjective, one man's meat and all of that, any colour other than black would suit me fine.

I can only see the bonnet when I am in the car.;)

Exactly! I have a new car on order in a Pearl White, its a slightly off-white, hint of cream in it looks a million dollars. The Ice whites look cheap to me. Main incentive is it keeps the car cooler, current car is Black and cooks even on a moderate day.

Again though, thats a small hatch with sporting pretensions and it can carry it off.

A white family hatch is a different thing all together.

Nope....(given the choice). Especially the Xsaro Picasso. Looks like an ambulance in white.

In some car mag reports on their fleet cars, most have commentated that the non metallic painted cars have picked up more 'chips' than the varnished (I can't spell lackked) ones - due to the solid paints being softer?
