o.k i know the trend is for white cars, but i see a new white car, black alloys and just think, why did you do it, it looks st.

i saw a 135m sport in white and another in orange, i thought why would anybody buy a white one, or i am missing something, where did all the colour go.

We just seem to be left with white, grey, battleship grey and light grey cars. is it because accountants all drive them?

I know people will post to cars in white and say how good looking they are and the paint technologies have made they better, but it just feel so dumbed down, so porridge.

i do find wgite cars 'work' from one angle, but i do feel it is a shame a lot of colour has gone from the roads, a saw a green 2002 Audi A8 yesterday and it looked good, a rare car.

the thing is you can post cars in white to justify how good looking they are, but you then can find a 'coloured' car that looks so much better.

The Audi rs4 looks so much better in colour, red, blue, the f430 in a blue would outlook any other colour.

White cars only really work on a few cars, pandas and ambulances smile

The latest SL is piggin ugly in any colour... In my opinion.
blue looks good, the SL is a bit gangerly so a darker colour should flow batter (fish)

White paint is usually free. Most other colour's are £500+ even on a tiny car. So it makes sense if you like white or don't care about such trivialities.
Spend that £500 on something more enjoyable than looking at a different colour!

A modern car in white is, 9 times out of 10, driven by a bell end. It's a choice made because it's fashionable.

It's all very attention seeking and, for me, so very un-British. Does make me laugh when i see an aforementioned bell end in his white Audi A5 driving through a miserable, rainy surburb though. You don't live in LA, pal!
Odd

I'm not a fan of white, but while car shopping recently I did find that it was either "dismal wet road grey" in 50 variations, or white. I'd have to have the white as it's the only non drab option. At least you don't camouflage into the road in a white car as you can in a grey one.
