Looking to buy a CSL
 
Hi, first post here so be gentle...

Been looking to get into a CSL for some time but have never quite been in the position to move quickly enought for the right one.

Anybody know any good examples for sale?

Saw this one on PH:

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/743293.htm

Anyone know it?

Cheers

Mark

Hi Mate

im sure someone on here will know , or know of someone that might do !

Just take your time , as there are some good ones out there , think actually there are more good ones than bad , due to the type of car , and owner of a CSL , as we are all bonkers

Good luck on your search , and shout if you have any Qs



:-D :smokin:

Bloody hell!!! Another Mark and another one based in Scotland!!! :hahaha:

Welcome mate. :beer:

Don't know the car, but if it is as straight as the advert descirption says it is, that is a good buy, at a very good price.

Just a shame its in the wrong colour!! :whistle:

There is a couple for sale on here.........

DazBlackCSL 25-02-2009 10:11 PM

Its the faster colour though !!! :hahaha:

E46ACS 25-02-2009 10:15 PM

It just FEELS faster as you are pushing the car harder when you trying to catch up with the SG ones....... :whistle:

Welcome to the mad house.
The car in question has been for sale for some time.
At that price I wonder why ?

Where in Scotland are you I live just outside harthill ?
If you need a look round a CSL give me a shout

Mark
Ps best name for a Csl owner
And bmw made the black CSL to give the SG CSL something to chase LOL

jibm 25-02-2009 11:19 PM

maybe no a/c??

SMD 25-02-2009 11:20 PM

That car has no Air Con! :beer:

dave1 25-02-2009 11:31 PM

not in that colour john you know what i mean

Andyk 26-02-2009 06:04 AM

That could be why it's a good price then if no air con....still seems a bit cheap though...have a look as if it's the car for you you should be able to even more dosh off the price. Good luck and welcpme to the forum. :thumbs:

md23 26-02-2009 07:54 AM

Thanks for the advice guys. Good spot re air con... I noticed no pdc but imo the rear looks better for it. Pity it has a radio - it could have been one of them proper light ones! Looks like it has Xenons from the pics but no mention in ad.

Not 100% set on CSL but it's one of those I have had on the must own list for a while...

Cheers

Well done Radders :thumbs:

Im also looking to get my first CSL soon. I Cant wait. Just sorting my finances and looking for the right one. Ive also seen that one on pistonheads and it looks a good deal. I do prefer the SG colour tho, however ive never seen a CSL other than on pictures so i dont know which looks better on the road !!?

bryce 26-02-2009 11:01 AM

Ive a SG one.

Considered a SB (Saphire Black) because they do look good, very stealth, and following Mark to Knockhill, his looked the bollocks. Reason I didnt go for one was: no contrast with roof, or CF splitters, bitch to keep clean.

Went SG in the end cos its my fav colour for most cars, contrast with roof & splitters, easy to keep clean, and there's more depth to the colour. At sunset it looks amazing!

bryce 26-02-2009 11:03 AM

Oh, and SG is miles faster :whistle:

SMD 26-02-2009 11:15 AM

Defo SG thats what a CSL is! :thumbs:

dustyjustin 26-02-2009 11:22 AM

The car in question is mine. The only reason I am selling it is I fancy getting something completely different. A Bentley GT. If I had the space I would look to keep the csl because it is a fantastic car and still makes me smile when I drive it. I am sure I will miss it when it has gone.

mattbedford 26-02-2009 11:24 AM

theres another one just gone on pistonheads. Looks well looked after nice low mileage but a bit too expensive for me....

bryce 26-02-2009 11:25 AM

Got to be a good car then, if owned my a fellow enthuasiast. :beer:

looks a very good car and VERY well looked after!! look at all the servicing!

Has the AP's fitted worth about 2.5k and wheels so its a 26-27k car really.

best on the market i think.

dustyjustin 26-02-2009 11:33 AM

I like to think so,

neil 26-02-2009 11:36 AM

Doesn't mention Xenons... else I'd be there in a flash! hehe

mattbedford 26-02-2009 12:58 PM

I thought they were fitted with xenons as standard??

dustyjustin 26-02-2009 12:58 PM

it has xenons

bryce 26-02-2009 01:07 PM

mattbedford

Xenons were an option, along with Air con and PDC.

md23 06-03-2009 01:49 PM
