Have to say its sort of growing on me, did not instantly like it. White is not the best colour for it in my opinion, it also shows all the dirt.
Like the mark on the bonnet, or is that the Suzuki rust starting?
Need to see one in real life, hopefully when its my turn to consider one all the new hype will have gone away and we will have some feedback from owners.

On the contrary Scimike - people often asked why I was washing my (white) car as it didn't look dirty. Only when I showed them a washed section next to an unwashed section did they see it was indeed dirty. White doesn't really show up dust or dirt until its caked in it. Silver is similarly good at hiding dirt and also scratches.
I owned that car for 20 years and recently bought it back after selling it in 1999, so feel I have a good authority on owning a white car
.
Black on the other hand, looks fabulous when clean and shiny, but never stays that way long - all manner of dust is seen clinging to it in the summer and the merest splash from a puddle that dries and its very obviously dirty. A friend with a black Y-type MG curses the colour
Seeing the new Jimny in photos - I did think I would like white, but now I've seen them in white, if I was choosing for myself would go for the unavailable green.
White with a Japanese Rising Sun flag on the roof would be cool though

I can't make my mind up about that - I kind of like it, but I don't think I could own it / live with it

I do like the Kinetic Yellow, but couldn't live with it I don't think.
