While out driving about yesterday for work (in the North East) I was trying my hand at Superb spotting in an attempt to make the time go quicker while waiting for mine to be made and delivered.

Unfortunately, I didn't see any :'(

I did however see three different BMW X1's, all in white! Just set me wondering if they are only available in white or if the other colours just dont stand out.

I have my own theory on this, BMW's have become very popular in white, due to the cost of metallic paint, I believe when my mum got her's it was heading towards a grand for the metallic paint she got.

I think it's people just cost saving, but still been able to have their bmw badge. I may be wrong,

White Paint = Cheaper = Hard Times color ''Trend'' which is apparantly in 'Fashion'

I dunno :no:

Seen a few in metallic turd brown.

Not an attractive car.

Perhaps this colour should be compulsory when buying an X1.

Sounds painful.

Although a somewhat fitting tribute to the Bangle years
