I have a black Disco 2 and a white Defender. On a hot, sunny day, if they are both left out in the sun, the Defender is much, much cooler.

I have always thought that a light coloured car will get less hot under a scorching sun, however according to the below study, there is not much difference.

Spent some time working just across the border of California/Arizona, and once left my hotel key card on the dash - was not even peak summer. By the evening is had literally melted. 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing
