Thanks, I bought it in Wiltshire from the son of the previous owner, a 94yr old porsche enthusiast who died earlier in the year. Yes its very tidy, seems like it was well looked after, previous owner used to keep battery on trickle charge when in the garage, etc.

I'm not sure, It was resprayed from white in 2005, I thought it was Linen metallic but the touch up paint I ordered from ebay is a tad too dark...Could be just bad batch of paint...

Does anyone has any examples of 944 in zermatt silver?

Polished and enjoyed, its my only transport at present!
