Like cars, white became fashionable.

Rubbish colour for a car, it shows up the dirt.


It tells people that bird**** isn't really white.

What is more irritating is the poor range of colours for cars today. A
blue, a red, and a number of shades between black and white.
Dullsville.


Silver grey is awfully common, too.


Looked at a canary yellow Audi Q2 yesterday. The paint was a £600
option,
though. And IME (of a Caterham R300 nosecone), it attracts insects.


When I bought the current car, I didn't care about the colour. So I got
the default blue (no additional cost).

SWMBO bought a car (same make) around the same time. The default colour
was bright yellow. She decided on white. (local estate agents bought the
yellow one as it matched their corporate colours).
