Yeah I know how father can get. But a car with 266k miles it alittle to much if you ask me. You are only 16 so now is not a good time to be picky about what you want but alittle bit more picky than the 266k decota. I didn't get my car until I was 18 when I was able to afford it on my own. Find you something that is reliable toget you from point A to point B and save up for the car you really want (SOM WS6). You are still learning so having an older car to learn on wouldn't hurt either.
