That's good too. So is white and black, but I don't think I'll own another black one. It doesn't handle the scratches from offroading very well.

I will chime in for owning what the stealership calls the most common colour: White Gold.

The white gold must be that Gold Champagne-ish color. I like it the least. I have had a few white Cherokees that I liked, but my first black vehicle is my Discovery and I love it. I do like most all the colors, except the white gold, but the dark LR/Jaguar green seems to be fitting, but I do like that lighter green as well. The Niagara Grey is classy to me as well. I do like the dark maroon color as well, just because it is a HOKIE color, and I would love to have the Kinversand burnt orange color that was only made in '99 & '00 I think.

I talked to a Greensboro, NC dealer about used LR3s and the colors he had in stock, and he said the only ones they really move are white, black & grey. He does not take in any that are not that color. He does concede that this is area specific and that on the west coast and in coastal areas the other colors sell as well as these base colors. Just FYI.

I've owned two, and one was white gold which I wasn't so much of a fan of, but it hid dirt and dust a whole lot better than my current black one... that being said my favorite colors are white and orange...

I like my Epsom Green alot. That being said. White would be a second choice as all White Discovery look cool. I had a white Nissan Altima, but would not choose that again.
I also parted an 04 Bonitta Gray Discovery. That was a nice gray, but I would rather have my green any day of the week.

Yeah White Gold is the Champagne. Hides dirt like nothing else, but it is also urban camo. Too close to concrete and most other natural things around these parts. Wish she was dark blue w/Union Jack on the roof.
