Diamond White is very 'cold' (too White with no 'warmth' for my taste) compared to L90D but at least you can get it in a can (e.g. Halfords, etc) for touch up work or the odd panel repar. I have L90D mixed by my local paint factors and they list two VW shades 'L90d Light and L90D Standard). If you do go with L90D best to check if they have two shades listed as L90D standard is much warmer than the other. I order the 'Light' which matches the original factory shade. Light shads do show up dirt, rust, scratches, etc, but this puts pressure on you to deal with problems sooner rather than later...which ain't a bad thing if you want to keep your van looking A1....
