Basically i think i made a big mistake going for a black car. They look great when clean but getting them and keeping them clean seem impossible. The cars been washed twice now in the space of a couple of hours and its still not perfect. I'd take it to be valleted but the lanes where i live are similar to what Loeb and co drive through. So help me to not make the same mistake again.

Flat black (ie without a metalic in) is by far the hardest. You rarely see it on cars these days for that very reason. Looks stunning when detailed, with almost a mirror finish but it's nearly impossible to stop getting dirty and spider webbing.
I've got a non-metallic black car. And a non-metallic white one. I have been painting and detailing cars for over 17 years !
so should have alittle experiance of cleaning and maintance of cars !
With out no shadow of a doubt silver is the best for being forgiving when it comes to cleaning and not showing the dirt ,
Black and very dark greens and blues are the worst for showing dirt , and also the hardest to wash and look after !
But black when properly prepped and looked after looks stunning !
This is an reflection image on a black nissan truck after being prepped correctly which you will never get with silver
