1800 miles is within BMW tolerance for running in service. Will not be an issue.

Good luck with your search :thumbs:

Thanks - I think I'll try to have a look at this one. Your SG looks great (even without the xenons!), by the way.

That is 100% correct :thumbs: Mine had it's run in @ 1800 miles (company car mile muncher in it's early life ) and it's had extended BMW Warranty ever since with numerous Warranty claims :whistle: without any issues what so ever :thumbs:

Good to know many thanks. Was initially thinking I'd be patient and wait for one that ticked all the boxes but will relook at that Aberdeenshire one. cheers

Well, I went to see the Devon car (this one) and it's an absolute peach.

The condition is absolutely as new (bar an understandably worn steering wheel). The current owner is a genuine enthusiast, who has kept the car in stunning condition.

In looking for the right car, I was more concerned about condition than mileage - after all, the mechanicals of these cars are bullet proof and failures do not seem to follow any mileage-related trend). Anyway, long story short, I bought it!

To say I'm thrilled doesn't even come close. What a car - the CSL has always been in my dream garage and having owned a 'vanilla' E46 M3, I knew I'd like the CSL. I can't wait for it to arrive now once all the money changes hands. I feel like a kid at Christmas.

Thanks to everyone for all their input - I'll post more when my (!) CSL arrives. :thumbs:

Congratulations on buying on condition :thumbs: and not making "Low mileage" and "Must Have Xenons" your priorities :banghead: It's how I bought mine and after nearly 2 years/ 16K mileas I still :smt055 it to bits and she hasn't let me down, not even once :thumbs:
Yours really does look like a Good'en :smokin: and in the right colour too :whistle:
Lots of pix as soon as you can please :-D

Well done matey - great feeling eh ?

Your post reminds me of when I got mine - between now and when you pick up will really drag, but the reward will be even sweeter !

A roads home I assume ;)
