Had one and it looked great clean and horrible dirty. Would only ever have another if it was metallic and if the paint was near and not been drven through a car wash every two weeks by the bird who was the preivous owner

Black is the best colour after a FULL polish and detail.. its so rewarding seeing that mirror finish!!







However!!! its the by far the worse colour for day-to-day use. You cant just wash a black car... you have to buff the good damn thing before you even leave the drive. I used to own a silver car and it had a good couple of layers of wax so when you washed it, that was it! Look nice and shiney after a simple wash and any water stains were masked by the colour .... then owned a black car after seeing the pictures above (they just looked sexual ) but fook me, it so hard to actually get the car clean nevermind keep it clean. You wash a black car and your left with watermarks which would have been masked by colour like silver or blue. Then when you polished it you'd see a shed load of issues with the paintwork... issues which you would struggle to see in any other colour i.e. once again, silver masked swirl marks pretty good

I love black cars, but I doubt I will ever own another one as they are such a biatch to keep clean! Shame really as they are awesome after 10 hours of work
