guys,you out there who like silver-i can't knock you. those who like flip colours-same applies. I do know that every time I get a flip paint 260 to sell, then it only lasts a week and someone travels miles to snap it up. T he point i'm making is that an estate is not necessarily looked after better than a saloon. I'm on my second flip colour 260 saloon and I'd defy anyone to find a better looked after car than mine (just ask the wife!). Like Brian says it's the best car i've had and I honestly don't know what i could replace it with that would be as good.
