White is actually one of the easiest colours to keep clean and swirl marks are all but invisible. My Transit van is white and it hardly shows the dirt at all, at least in the spring/summer time.

lol Iv got a shocking story. Car was starting to smell a bit funky. A few weeks back I had a load of mates in the back on a bit of a road trip and we had stopped in a McDess and got coffees etc, Id left them in the back and half them hadnt been drunk and where still at least half full, the milk was black, it was nasty. That would be the smell then lol
