Hi, am looking at purchasing a white safari but am worried that using bottled ink would stain the section. Am I best to stick with cartridges for the lighter coloured Lamy's?

I have a white and use bottled ink, had no problems with mine so far. Just clean the section as soon as you have filled it.
I also haven't had any staining on my white Safari. I just wipe the section with a damp paper towel immediately after filling and make sure all of that stray ink is gone.
If you're really worried about it, you could always fill the converter with a syringe in order to avoid dipping the nib and section. I sometimes do that just to avoid all of the mess.
Use a ink syringe the seat the section, put the nib in the bottle, give a quarter twist down so a drop of ink flows into the bottle. Feed should be primed no staining

I also never had problems of stain with my white Lamy Safari. I have my for about 4 years now, and I always used bottle of ink
It depends on the inks you are planning to use in your white Safari.
Avoid the inks which are known to stain, Noodler's Bay State Blue for example, and you will be good.
Mine stained a bit with Cape Cod Cranberry from another pen. I used diluted dish washing liquid and could get rid of the stains but it is an experience i can do without.
