Thanks for the info so far. Of the two, I think that the Mark one is preferable. I'm in Salisbury, so it's a far old trip up to see that one in Lincs.
Now to the issue of insurance, as this is a first 'extra' car, I am classed as having no NCD, despite having 20 yrs+ of claim free motoring. I have a company car, Merc E Class, and a Fiat 500 that my wife uses. It is this that has the NCD. any tips on insurance, companies etc?
What is the road tax on a 260, those CO2 figs are eye watering. I know I don't buy a beast like a 260 for its green credentials - I'll plant a tree or something - maybe even 2. I'm near the New Forest so there are loads of trees already, so my conscience is clear, if a little smokey!
