Seen very few white ones here in SA as well . So there probably will be an issue with resale value . Didn't like it in white at first , but it isgrowing on me (so do warts I spose) . Looks much better if you have the black strips on the doors
Heine, you need to come down to the coast. Lots of white D3's now, although I do agree that when they were first launched they were rare.
...changed my mind.......saw a white RRS on friday en route to Weymouth & C.Isles.
Must admit sailing past me it looked awesome...it was a very clean example
....will make a point of looking for a D3 to get to grips with the new favourite colour.BREXIT - done properly.

I think that it looked good. There was a new silver D3, which didn't look so good. There was also a new one in dark metallic green. I didn't get closer than 30 metres but it looked very smart.
Welcome to the world of D3, Mines dark green so what !! enjoy it for what it is, if you get bored with white then mud comes in many colour schemes.Good luck
This is where NJF and me disagreed - I really didn't like the all white look. I think it's okay on an RRS as it has that "floating roof" look. Just not on a D3.
But do agree with the green - looked good.The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...
