That's the colour mine-s painted. '00' white. No tint in there at all, shines like a mofo in the sun - cannot look directly at it in bright sun - and makes the standard colour look mucky.

Littlekncocks - did you manage to check out Ford Frozen White? I saw a picture (but can't find it now) of a Diamond white ST next to a Frozen white one and it made the Diamond one look distinctly cream in comparison - even though the DW of the ST is pretty white as far as shades of DW go.... A mates got a FW ST and it's a VERY bright white.

there is a color that i have see a car painted in a paint shop in, i never heard of the color but it was called ''metalic solar flare white'' it was really bright/metallic and in the light you couldnt really look at it properly when it was polished up.

was so cool tho!

Cheers.
Looked through the history and it says "Pure Brilliant White: paint code of 00 (zero zero)". Not a standard Ford colour as theirs have a yellow tint (Vaux have blue tint) hence why proper diamond white cars can look creamy compared to other whites.
