RAF Colerne Spitfire

Hi all,

My Grandfather was in the RAF Cadets based at RAF Colerne in 1959/1960 and recalls sitting in a Spitfire in one of the hangars there during that time. Would anybody happen to know the identity of this aircraft?

It could be one of two.

If high back and camouflaged with three blade propeller…P7350, now flying with the BBMF.

If low back and silver with four blade propeller…RW388, now at the Stoke museum.
