I always thought the FL2 looked good in white.

i just dont get the whole white car thing tho, especially if it has tinted glass making it look commercial!
Maybe they shoud put pink stripes on it like the focus ST170!!

dont see how black tinted windows make them look commercial Confused , maybe if they were white tint, then yes it would look like a van

So maybe you think black with black tints look commercial too Question Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Doesn't look commercial at all, contrasting colours always have appeal. You wouldn't put red stripes on a red car so you go for a contrasting colour and black with white is the best choice.

Freelander commercials! They have tinted glass with mesh on the inside!

Also white and black are not colours, so no contrast there!

I took a tour of the Halewood Freelander factory yesterday and I was able to specifically ask about paint shortages and they told me that:
THERE ARE NO SHORTAGES OF ANY PAINT COLOURS AND ALL COLOURS ARE FULLY IN PRODUCTION.

So that's good news Thumbs Up

Well done Tigger for asking directly about this subject.

Now what was I saying days ago chaps on that other thread about not trusting the Gandolf fellow spreading his fallacious corporate spin......
