Yep, it's Zenith Blue. It was a private sale although there was a similar one at Camtune (without the spoiler) that I test drove and because I couldn't make my mind up, it had gone when I went back. It's taken me a few weeks to find the right one, I specifically wanted the manual box and seemed to find loads of tips when I was shopping.

The rear end is stunning and I'm often being complimented on it! I get a huge grin on my face looking in the door mirror to see that wonderful shape down the rear wheel arch and the hint of the spoiler. It's also a great drive, more challenging than I'd expected.

All in all, a great car and well worth the wait (and the money!).

nice car,, people who say the zenith is rather a girly colour are talking out there rear end.. Mine is ocean blue without the spoiler at the back. Will post up some pics too.

Did you pick it up from a guy called Paul ?

It's not as girly as my Guards Red Boxster S that I whizzed around in last summer! (No offense to the Boxster drivers, but I am a girl).

And yes Subversive, it was Paul.

Is that your red 964 too? Or just a very Porsche-centric neigborhood!

The red 964 belongs to my other half, another Porsche nut. It's a lovely car, guards red with a cream leather and red piping interior and it's in great condition.

The only arguments are about who is going to drive when we go out. We both want to drive! (Oh and the odd 'discussion' about who has the best looking car).

Small world, I was going to buy the same car early this year off Paul but due to circumstances couldn't complete the deal. I asked him agin a few weeks back when I was looking for a c2s and he told me it was sold....Top chap Paul gave me some good advice on what to look for on these superb cars.. Now I finally have one I realise what all the fuss was about they really are fantastic cars!!! Seem to be going up in value too... unlike the 996. lol

I presume you're talking about the car!

Anyway, given the reg. number I can't believe no-one has made the LaRD-arse quip yet!!...........

Lovely car, well done.

However, am annoyed at you putting it in the same picture as a red 964 (like mine). Being able to compare the two side by side confirms that I do have to start saving for a C2S.

Bum.

Had to laugh, that reminds me when steve first bought the riviera blue 964 3.6 turbo that still had its private plate on "911 FLA". Steve's quite stocky turned up pleased as punch with his new toy. One of my mates chirps up see you bought a private plate for it, 911 fat lardy arse.
