Default It's sure good to be back in a Cecil!!

This is my second CSL and drives nice and tight and performs just as a CSL should, tape over the mileage and you would be hard pressed to guess she was over 100k.

It was Nathan's car and what a true gent he was to deal with as he has had some mares of people ringing up after a rather silly thread on PH!!

its really for high days and holidays as a 3rd car so the mileage should even out over the years. I done about 700 miles in the e30 last year at best. much older and more fragile than a CSL. will be SORN over winter I think.

Spec:

Car registered 18.09.2003
Full spec - xenons, PDC, climate, business radio etc. rain sensor
112,400 miles
CSL plaque
Re-trimmed steering wheel with aftermarket paddles (still have the unmarked originals)
Recent clutch at BMW April 2012 - carried out under BMW warranty
Subframe replaced under BMW warranty Jan 2012
AC Schnitzer rear exhaust and Miltek centre section
FBMWSH at Murketts apart from the last service inspection 2 which was carried out by the dealer at an independent BMW specialist
Running in service carried out at 1180 miles by Murketts
Refurbished (red) AP racing set up front and rear
All keys, CSL handbook etc. included

Pics:




















interior:



















garage queen ;-)



The APs are just bonkers. need a public health warning on the back!!

few bits on order such as new side grill badge and px side CSL sill plate.

rear seat console and SMG tower need a refurb.

might chop in 100 cell cats n rear box for standard.

the motor for the Carbon box flapped has packed up but Nathan got a new one before I bought it and that's in the deal. its jammed wide open at minute...oh what a hardship that is ;-)

feels very good matt and hard to explain really to people.

its the noise from the airbox that always starts the grin from the induction at low speed, then its just gets wider and wider as you press on

I love the balance and grip of the CSL and the general environment of it too.

My bad... Its was my Thread, though it genuinely wasn't meant to be silly, or cause anyone any issues!! I guess the issue with the internet is once you post on the internet you never know where the tread goes.

I think in the end though, as with my tread on here it has shown that you can not get a cheap CSL which is great for the owners.

Again, sorry if it encouraged some none genuine callers!
