    I saw this one on the M6 a few months ago the colour is fine! It is also very rare, I understand also the that the cream leather was a limited commission also so rare inside and out.
    Glad to see the owner posting as I recommend joining shame its under these circumstances.
    Good luck in the sale!

    My advice to any eBay seller is to use the full 12 pics you get for FREE with the listing.
    The more pics the better chance of selling IMO.

    If you don't show both sides of car, punters think the other side is bent!!

    It's now just £5300 on eBay. I am so tempted to buy it for a 'weekend' car to run along side my 'everyday' 190. But the road tax will be £435 next year and £415 on my 190. Add the £65 VED for my Ducati. That would be over £900. in road tax alone

    That summarises the difficulty sellers of the V8's and 190's have in finding customers now.

    If you get rid of the 190 and the Ducati and just have a 260, you'll be paying less tax than you do now You know it makes sense...

    Wouldnt get rid of my 190. Ive had four KV6's. Just luv em. Mines a late '07' reg.. A 260 would have to be a weekend car. A 2.5 V6 is quite expensive to run. Just couldnt warrant a 4.6 V8 as an every day car, although I will own one some day!! As for selling my Ducati, Nooo. Could never be with out two wheels

    Lets make it sound less painful Nick:
    That's less than £3 a day for 3 nice modes of transport!
    Non car owners or city dwellers are paying more than this per day in transport costs ........and for far less freedom.

    Freedom, Style & Comfort & your own armchair on wheels with your favourite music...............Keep all 3 and enjoy them

    I totaly agree. What a fantastic car the 260 is.. The price on this lovely saffron example has been dropping about £500 per week. What a bargain at just £5300. If it comes down much more I will have to snap it up. A member over on the org site picked up another 04 model a couple of weeks back for just £4995. Thats just 1/7th of it cost just 4 years ago!

    Any one with some spare dosh nice mk2 with a blower starts to make sense when you massage the figures particulary if the price drops any more,can it go any lower?,theres ZT's on ebay costing more at the moment.
