Silver Grey M3 csl no. 133 of 422 and no. 14 of 49 with factory delimit (very rare). mileage 47920.
Has every extra from factory except comfort screen.

FSH and only 2 previous owners from new.

Good condition tyres, (Pirellis all round as I don't track it).

Superb condition in and out. 100% original car. No mods.

2 sets of keys.

I am a very hyper critical person and will describe the car in full and with total honesty.

Interior


Very, very good condition, almost immaculate and completely original. But a couple of points to note. Steering wheel and trim is 100% original, the Alcantara trim is a bit worn. The csl plaque has been polished over the years and is a little faded. Still very legible but trying to be completely honest. The csl sill plates inside the doors have just milked on the very outer edges..........a very common occurrence. The auto dimming rear view mirror developed a leak, I had this sent to a specialist to get refurbished, as new now and has 10 months remaining warranty. This is a well known fault. The rear windows and rear screen are tinted, this was done very professionally by a previous owner. I have to admit I like the way it sets off against the silver grey and black carbon roof.

Exterior


Very, very Good again.........Near mint. One stone chip to front bumper on drivers side. One stone chip to passenger side roof rail. One chip to passenger side, side skirt. Again, all 100% original panels and described 100% honestly. Almost like new car!

Maintenance

Prior to me purchasing in March this year the car had undertaken an inspection 2 at classic heroes, a well known bmw specialist. I asked the question re. cracks in the rear floor/ subframe. It was fully inspected, it was found to be clear of cracks and has never been repaired in the past. The car is totally original.

The car has full service history, with invoices confirming all work undertaken in a A4 file I have (also all original books and manuals in alcantara m3 csl doc wallets).

Running in service 1286 miles
Oil service 10175
Inspection 1 21152
Oil service 32069
Oil service 43165
Inspection 2 44910
Oil service 47522 date 02/10/2013

A lot of the servicing was done time based rather than based on mileage, even sometimes done when not required. I had the oil service done even though 12000 miles were still showing on the cars service computer!

The car drives perfectly, any inspection welcome.

The csl is taxed till nov 2014 and mot till 21/04/14.

My price £33995.

My number is 07971952244 or email benfj180@hotmail.com if you have any other questions re the car? I have stacks of info on the car and paper work to confirm all works undertaken since new. No agents and no PX. No test drive will be permitted unless adequate proof of insurance produced.

Please see photographs below.

Also have coverzone fitted all weather 4 layer cover for sale. Can be included in sale for additional £75. Cost £175 new and is mint and has carry case.

I agree. if the Abingdon Sheisster can charge £40k for a car with 10k less miles but probably nowhere near as clean I would put yours up for £35k mate.

it will sort the wheat from the chaff but I guess it depends on your need and timescale to shift on.

there is another one on PH for sale at a stealer with 52k miles but same price. that does not have xenons and pdc. do the math!!

Admittedly his adverts may not be the best, but calling him a scheister is a bit harsh. I don't think he's ever ripped anyone off. Just advertises cars and sells them. His prices may seem high but people pay it, so I'm just jealous of the profits. Plus he goes a good way at keeping values of your Csl high.

You also have to bare in mind that not all the cars advertised are necessarily owned by NJ, some may be, are being sold on a commission basis on behalf of their respective owners, so they will have certain expectations of their cars value, given the recent trend in asking prices! :)

Priced reduced £33500

silver grey m3 csl no. 133 of 422 and no. 14 of 49 with factory delimit (very rare). Mileage 47920.
Has every extra from factory except comfort screen.

Fsh and only 2 previous owners from new.

Good condition tyres, (pirellis all round as i don't track it).

Superb condition in and out. 100% original car. No mods.

2 sets of keys.

I am a very hyper critical person and will describe the car in full and with total honesty.

interior


very, very good condition, almost immaculate and completely original. But a couple of points to note. Steering wheel and trim is 100% original, the alcantara trim is a bit worn. The csl plaque has been polished over the years and is a little faded. Still very legible but trying to be completely honest. The csl sill plates inside the doors have just milked on the very outer edges..........a very common occurrence. The auto dimming rear view mirror developed a leak, i had this sent to a specialist to get refurbished, as new now and has 10 months remaining warranty. This is a well known fault. The rear windows and rear screen are tinted, this was done very professionally by a previous owner. I have to admit i like the way it sets off against the silver grey and black carbon roof.

exterior


very, very good again.........near mint. One stone chip to front bumper on drivers side. One stone chip to passenger side roof rail. One chip to passenger side, side skirt. Again, all 100% original panels and described 100% honestly. Almost like new car!

maintenance

prior to me purchasing in march this year the car had undertaken an inspection 2 at classic heroes, a well known bmw specialist. I asked the question re. Cracks in the rear floor/ subframe. It was fully inspected, it was found to be clear of cracks and has never been repaired in the past. The car is totally original.

The car has full service history, with invoices confirming all work undertaken in a a4 file i have (also all original books and manuals in alcantara m3 csl doc wallets).

Running in service 1286 miles
oil service 10175
inspection 1 21152
oil service 32069
oil service 43165
inspection 2 44910
oil service 47522 date 02/10/2013

a lot of the servicing was done time based rather than based on mileage, even sometimes done when not required. I had the oil service done even though 12000 miles were still showing on the cars service computer!

Just to let all those who have contacted me re. CSL. This is the last weekend the car will be for sale. If it is not sold this weekend, I am going to keep. This does not mean I am open to silly offers........you know who you are!
This is the cheapest (considering mileage), best spec and I have no doubt best condition, low owner CSL for sale in the country.:thumbs:
