Please explain to a mere novice like myself. Not a novice in driving terms, been driving since 1978
and driven/owned loads of different cars and various colours too. Why do people on here refer to Candy as White? Mine is white and to my knowledge there is only one white available to Scirocco owners as there is with Green and Black.
Just my opinion like.

Yes I did and that's my point where there is only on variant why not just use, as I do, White?

I think all car companies have a fancy name for the colours.
