Back Magic but I can see the problem with the Temperature....maybe a lighter colour with cream coloured leather interior would keep it cool

Welcome to Briskoda. The black metallic looks really good when clean but surely you need a much lighter colour so that the car is less affected by the sun?

Welcome to briskoda, I'd go for the Nature green. Black looks good when clean, but with the heat and the sand it may be difficult to keep clean.
