what do you do with your CSL
 

How many use the CSL in the winter ?

tomorrow :beer:

DO you beleve the weather man :119:

Yes use it all year round although not if its raining if I can help it. Got caught out driving back from Wales in July and it was properly hammering down - the cups worked well though considering how worn they are. Only one scary moment of aquaplaning! :smt103

Re: what do you do with your CSL
 

I use mine all year round but prefer to use other car when there is lots of ice and snow on the roads - for obvious reasons.

Its going to be my every day car, rain or sun :smokin: Looking forward to getting used to it.

I try to use mine everyday........ usually the route is home, work, BMW garage - repeat until sold :hahaha:

My last couple of Evo's i garaged all winter to keep the salt off them, was a nice rest from the constant ££££ spending too.

This cars already been through a few winters so i'll simply run it as normal, though to be fair, thats only at a weekend anyway :)

Everyday Mark, although I only cover about 5k a year.

I don't use it much in fact around 4 to 5k per year, but whenever I need or want, I take it, mostly for track days, car evens. I use my company car of my golf convertible for everydays

Garaged For the Winter Months! Indoor Heated Garage Also Under BMW Car Cover :thumbs:

Everyday, although I am thinking about getting a daily runner for the winter......

Weekends only and will have to wash it more often as the weather deteriorates.
I must do about 3-4k miles a year in it but they're all sooo much fun!

Using mine everyday but really want to just use it when its nice :-D

used daily (almost) over last two years.

used to have an RS6 to run for work but was falling to bits and CSL was only car for a while.....but now its relegated to the garage during the week and taken out on weekends only during the winter and the RRSport is now the winter tractor

Mine will be tucked up under it's cover in the garage for Winter but will come out on nice days. Use a 335i tourer for daily miles.

Mine is tucked up under it's cover in the garage for Winter, will be back out in march for a ring trip :drool:

Wish i had accomodation like that, let alone the car!

Whers that car cover from? Looks great!

http://www.classicadditions.com/ its a great cover fits perfect

I just couldn't tuck mine up for the winter .....it would just get the better of me and would have to get it out.

Sitting in a Carcoon for the next 2-3months, it also stops temptation.

Then as Donk says out in time for a bit more....

Cool! Have to say i just dont think i could leave the car for that long, i use it about twice a week and i still have withdrawal symptoms .

Every single day in mine , rain , shine , snow , track , M4 , M40 , M1 (on way to TMS for gismo's) :hahaha:

Flat out in sport mode , must admit though with the KW3's on its going take a little while getting used to it again ... drove a 635d sport yesterday and felt like putting my feet up and getting a massage !!!! :P

this cover is just perfect, :thumbs: did you ask for the Csl and Bmw logo on it? or does it come with it.

Yeah that does look the biz , not water proof , which I need ... do they do a "Slim Fitting " one like that, that is waterproof ??

I have the bmw 1 cost £127 and is fleece lined

david you can pick the colour of the cover and colour for the piping and add any badges you want but they are a little extra. I think the total price was £260 posted

thanks for the informations Donk :beer:

cheers

That does happen to mine. If the weather is nice and no salt on the roads, the cover comes off and it'll get a blast. Just means I have to spend half a day cleaning it every time, which my wife tells me I am obsessive about. She's right. :-D

Weekends only really. Prefer it to be dry days this time of the year, nopt essential though.

Be interested to hear what other car you have if you put the CSL away for winter. And when its out, is it mainly for trackdays? Anyone lock up for winter and DONT track ever?

That would be just WRONG big time, I'm sorry but really, what a waste! :bigcry:

Lol - big time waste! Mine is a daily driver, most miles at weekends though - in between the track :smt077

Thats why I asked mate. Its understandable if you've kicked crap outta it all summer, but if you havent? Hmmm

Built to be driven.....so drive I say.

Mine is tracked from April to October and crosses Europe a few times a year, so deserves it's lay up over Winter. But I can't resist taking it out if it's nice. I enjoy my daily motor but it's nothing like the CSL for pure driving pleasure.

Mine is tucked up for Winter.
Only coming out to have bits fitted ready for 09!

Nah, drive it when I feel like it.

No strict regime - try to avoid supermarkets and taking it to work though!
