Can anybody tell me why the two types and what is the difference?

Pre-harmonisation there was no difference.

Now normal cable is grey, and LSF is white.

On a practical note, white cable is softer than grey ... Easier for the DIY'er to work with apparently

rarely used the LSF stuff... but then softness doesnt really make much difference, unless your tryin to wire a 3phase contactor with 25mm² cable into a small box, with absolutly no play on the outgoin cable... then i wish it was more flexable!
