Having never sold one privately I'm not sure the dealers care what colour they get when they give you the joke trade-in cost against your new one..... Land Rover Addict

^ same for me.
Had a dark blue one because I liked it, but it was dirty for ever, even after an hour of sponging, drying, polishing etc. Hated it so sold it. Now third silver one, next one red?

Stornoway is the best colour for not washing - 18 months was my record! Land Rover Addict

Condition was more important to me over colour, originally i wanted grey or buck blue but ended up with silver because it was in such good condition.

I pcik a colour I like but when buying used sometimes it's not easy to find the preferred choice. Fortunately my taste doesnt really include "dodgy" colours

I always buy what I like - and assume it will be easy to sell as I have great taste Very Happy

Resale has never entered my mind when buying a car
