Totally agree! I was looking for a Rimini Red and the rip-off-merchant told me not many people order Red. His explanation was that the brouchure colour doesn't look anything like the real colour, but when they come in on part x they are gone next day! Shame they have dropped it cos the new red is cra Censored but without wishing to start the usual arguements so are White, Black, Manuals and Caravans


I've been to a few auctions where ex police cars have been on sale. The reason for the low value has nothing to do with colour Rolling with laughter MY11 Freelander 2 Sport LE Fuji White

white bounces heat off, black swallows it, hence cricketers wear white to try and keep cooler.
conversely black cools quicker hence fast planes such as the blackbird are indeed black.

things such as kettles are chrome because shiny things loose heat slower

why are household radiators white? cant rembember now but its due to heat loss somehow?


most importantly adding chrome does not make your car cooler Laughing At work

On a white car the dash is still black which reflects heat into the car, thus being a similar temp inside! White is crap that is all!

Also police buy white cos it's cheap!

It would be good for someone to conduct an experiment with 5 freelancers all different colours and leave in direct sunlight for 1 hour and measure the temp. Then we can see, there would be very differents in the temp between all the cars!

Didn't mythbusters do a test on black and White cars and the effect on temp inside? Can't remember results though

Apart from a few Ozzy members and those in hot climates, I don't think we have much to worry about with heat inside the cars, 2 mins of open windows when loading up and the air conditioning sort it out Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

But I don't care about global warming! Who does.... No one on here does as they drive oil burning land rovers!

Bring it on, there's lots of money to be made from global warming!
