Having a closer look now I'm not sure of the colour! In sun light it looks cream but otherwise it looks a subtle pink or creamy pink.
I'll have to try look up the colours and see which looks the closest.

I've decided it is cream, a browny pinky cream.
I know this picture makes it look white but it definitely isn't white.

Hi All it took me a long time to get my first Refreshments Canteen had to have a day off work as the auction was midweek, had to pay nearly £200 for it as there was another guy in the auction that wanted it as bad as me. Since then I have managed to pick up another white ( may be cream ) & a pink one, I am always on the look out for the one with black wheels Pete.

This is one of those colours that is very difficult to define when you only have the one model to look at. It is also a difficult colour to show photographically. If several models were to be shown together, then colours can be described more accurately, but at around £200 a go, it's not the sort of model you can just go out and buy a few examples of at once!!

Very true Ghosty, I can't photograph mine at the moment but the pink version I have is a very subtle colour and just noticeable when it's side by side with the cream.

Nice mobile Canteen. I wish mine was as nice as that one. Unfortunately, the hook is broken and it's missing it's front lid. :(
