Diamond White Sport XS

I've recently bought a second hand 107 Sport XS in Diamond White, with red stripes. A friend of mine (who's really in to his cars!) says I've bought a very rare car.
Is he correct? If so does anyone know how rare? How many were sold in the UK and how many of them were white, as most I've seen are Raven Black with red stripes.

i think the white and the grey ones are slightly rare and the red and the black ones in the XS model were more popular

There were a fair few sold but they don't sell them anymore. The white ones are pretty uncommon but 107's are pretty common cars. I would say they are the most uncommon out of the XS's but still readily available second hand  Welcome to the club by the way! |

but there is plans for a 107gt which will be on the new facelift model, with some of the mods being what was fitted to the XS, think the release date is mid to the end of this year in the UK.

I have a Raven Black XS, but you wouldn't know it looking at it - it's been de-stripped

It is one of the best looking 107's. White can sound cheap...like a fridge but it is a pearl type finish and looks rather swish IMHO

Looks good.
Mind you with a Daewoo or whatever it is in the background even a mini clubman would look good

The 46s are the rarest of all 107s!
