Like cars, white became fashionable.

Wonder if it was the sanitary makers or BL who chose the colours in the
'70s? So many were shared. Brown really suited an Allegro. ;-)

I had a gold MKII N reg Escort with a brown vinyl roof.

The monkeys at Knowsley Safari park soon removed that.

Isn't a lot to do with cost? For example nowadays almost all cars are white, black, blue, red. I've been told that those colours of paint cost less.
