Car Colour
16 Answers
when i had a silver car in the earlyish 2000s, it seemed to me that the majority of cars were that colour. now i have a white car, it seems to be again, that the majority of cars seem to be white. does car colour popularity wax and wane, or it it simply an unconscious bias on my part?

Red used to be a big no no and probably still is.It was said to encourage road rage for some odd reason In earlier days the colour would fade rapidly in the sun but perhaps paint has evolved since then. I love my Metallic black car but that was said to be smeary after a wash years ago.. I can't recall why my parents didn't enjoy their white Austin 1300 . The one after the Morris 1100 with hydro elastic suspension. My Caribbean blue Nissan Nirvana Ute was really pleasing to the eye and to drive.

The colours do gain or loose popularity.
My missus loves her red cars had a red SLK and now got a red Jag. My black BMW looks good but thats mainly because it is the black shadow edition so grill lights and even the chrome exhaust are blacked.
We had a white GTI Twin Cam in 1990, the closest to grey was the Xr3i, but it was a sort of two tone.
I also once had an orange Capri GT and a yellow Cortina estate!
