I think you have made a good choice and should be easier to resell.

We are very lucky - lots of people who ordered the new ZS have been told not due till September! We only bought our MG5 last week - but I had contacted lots of garages to track ours down. #teamsilver

We are lucky indeed. We ordered ours at the end of November. Hope you enjoy your new car.

Genuine questions - Is white paint that much cheaper than paint of other colours? If so, why is that? If not, why the price hike?

Flat colours are generally a little cheaper than metallics, but in reality think of the white like a £2 Ryanair seat; it's to lead you into the deal and make the headline price lower.

Then, once you have convinced yourself the car is for you, (you want to fly to an airport 35 miles from the city you wish to visit), you are happier to pay the £500-800 uplift for the paint (to add your bags, check in and a drink to the £2 flight to get to £100) as you like the car and we all know white is a PITA to keep clean.

It isn't the colour that makes it cheaper but the fact that it's a solid paint rather than metallic or pearlescent.

Not really. Sometimes it rains.

It's done nothing but rain since collection of my car. It's only been 3 days and it needs a serious clean.

- so true!

In Scotland we only get rain once a year.

Unfortunately, it tends to last for 365 days!

I've ordered red for the following reasons:-

They're all the same price with Affinity, but red is more expensive otherwise.
Easier to find in a car park, too many white, grey and black cars.
I've never had a red car.

And they go faster.

Red was the most popular (common) colour 25 years ago and statistically was involved in the most collisions.

I've had 3 red cars, thought I'd go for silver this time for a change. No doubt these days silver is statistically, involved in more collisions than any other colour

I went blue as I've had 3 silver/grey cars previously.
When i collected my car there was a silver mg5 in the showroom.
It looked lovely

Still no regrets though.
