Don't joke - my second choice after red. Quite like white vans with a few nice graphics, it's what we have now.White?
Definitely a consideration Lenny. We will be going abroad more often than not now as not been able to for the past 15 years. I"ll be adding a lot of insulation into the van anyway, plus likely keep the roof white whatever (better for solar).If you plan on doing any travelling abroad a light colour would better at reflecting heat.
If you still go for a red it will need a protective clear coat or it will probably fade and look awful after a few years.

I quite like the idea of a matt white tbh.Personally with that size of vehicle id avoid metallic. It will show up every imperfection.
I had planned a matt finish myself
Ceramic blue.
But these suit simple colours.
Anthracite grey metallic is the best colour in the world!Annoyingly, I think the colour is going to have to change.
Painting something the size of the Vario in a candy paint like the Mazda Soul Red will be really difficult and probably beyond my capabilities. It's a 3 part paint that needs to be consistent with each layer (taken advice now). I think even a good paint shop would struggle on this size of vehicle.
Also, in the back of my mind, I'm wondering if Soul Red will date quickly. It was only 2 years ago that Nardo Grey was the colour. Now, not really. Maybe a more classic colour that stands the test of time would be a better idea?
So, I need to decide on a colour again and open to suggestions?
Doesn't need to be in red, just something we like and suits the van. A nice simple metallic would probably be best. All of the outside accessories (awning, service doors, windows, etc) are in black (already ordered) so will go with most things.
Any ideas?
So far the best we have is Mercedes Mars Red.

Allegro yellow!Yas Marina Blue (BMW colour) is fabulous, would need some black accents to break it up a bit on a large vehicle. TBH Black windows will break it up nicely…

Agree, I like orange, the problem is that a flat orange will make it look like an ex council van in lots of countries. Imo as you re having to spray it anyway you might as well spray it some unique colour/ combo, if you do it white it just looks like you did a standard van. If you like the Mazda red Wissel would it help to do the bottom half in that and the top half in a white?The red looks like a postal van. Two tone looks like a library bus. Yellow is nice. Mind you I always fancied orange
