You should probebly tell them the most prominant colour i.e the colour that the inside of the car is (if its the same as the outside) or the colour that the car is most

yeah, you have to tell the dvla, change the colour of the car to the main colour now

your insurance will need to know, and it'll go up

notr so sure insurance need to know, dvla do as obviously will be logged as white corsa, so you need to decide what the majority colour is.

Or you could do what most people do with two tone cars and flip painted cars and fill in the correct section of the V5 form with a list of the cars colours and send it to the DVLA. You also have to tell your insurance company if you have a re-spray, they probably wont load your insurance but they could get arsey if you need to make a claim.

as it stands for police an official purposes you have to declare the car by its dominant colour so the colour you see the most
