Are Tesla cars only available in white? I haven't seen one around here in any other colour!

Yes, although white does seem universally popular. My brother has a white one which we call the milk float :)
I wouldn't have one for love of money - expensive, not enough range or charging points, those taking too long - and most of all, not environmentally friendly. 65% of the UK's tricity is generated from oil and gas, so one has the efficiency of that to consider, never mind transmission losses down the power-lines - and the damage done to CO2 and Nox and the rest by making and, eventually, disposing of them.
White paint comes as standard. Black, silver or blue paint costs £1450 extra. Red paint costs £2500 extra. I think that might explain why you see so many white models ;-)

not seen a white one - only dark colours.
There are 2 blue ones near me.
Walking into our little town, I pass several Teslas including a red one (didn't know about the £2500 price difference)...one of the white ones has snow-white leather upholstery. So practical!
I don't think I've ever seen a white one, even in the Tesla shop a few miles away - it must be because I live in such a fantastically wealthy area. I've seen all the colours mentioned by Buenchico, though.
ginge, any time my chauffeur spills anything on the white upholstery, he knows he'll be looking for another job the next day. It's just down to training.
White isn't a colour
It's a shade that has many shades - try going into an auto paint shop and just asking for white.
"White isn't a colour"...for the purposes of buying a car, it is.
