Listed for these models in Japanese catalogue colour listings. Not every colour was offered for every year or trim.

Other Suzuki models outside our model library used 26U too.

Has a 26U car been resprayed?

Find the model plate and read the code. On the caution plate in the engine bay, usually on the bulkhead, next to COLOR. If it says 26U, the car left the factory in Superior White.
Check the V5C. For Superior White it should say WHITE or CREAM. Add the paint code to our free check and we’ll compare it with the DVLA record for you.
Check the auction sheet. It should describe the car as white and usually prints the code. A sheet that says one colour with a code for another means the car was painted before it was sold in Japan. Our auction sheet translator flags that.
Look for the old colour where a respray rarely reaches: the engine bay, door shuts, inside the boot lid and fuel flap, and under rubber seals.
