4 Was totaly original...... WRONG on that score me thinks, won't go into details on that score but lets say some parts aren't as it was supplied.

Hexagon were wrong on all counts.
I got a mate that used to work there and now works at another famous BMW outfit. Anyway a CSL he saw earlier this year he said wasn't in great condition for the price. This is the one everyone was PMing me about. The 9000 mile one well lets just say he saw the merits of SMGII after doing an Inspection II Service.

Lies at a place that sells cars.......ill never hear it said

TO be honest a dealers cant be expected to know every detail about every car and if i was selling a car to them i certainly wouldnt be telling them all i knew if it were to affect the value.

As for prices...it can never be a bad thing look at a nice late e30 sport evo...never worth it but always worth what someone is prepared to pay if thats a lot then thats it, supply and demand and all that

Suggests 245 are currently Licensed with 40 sworn, that's only 285! where are the rest gone? c. 130 cars written off? I doubt it, perhaps 50 at most, the remainder are off the UK grid.
That is scary, only a few months ago there was 300, so that means 15 have left the UK in that time

At DN9 there was a wrapped UK CSL (RHD) that was Swiss registered, so they're going all over .

If I remember the car correctly it was a rather basic spec with CD, Radio and Air-Con? from Tommy R's add, that's why I didn't pursue a purchase, albeit local.

Tommy advertised with it reading 19,500K for £34K at one point, next thing the gons (I doubt they gave that for it) had it up for £40K, that was £30+ per mile as it traveled South and it Sold.

Don't you already have one Neil, or are you buying for investment now as well ?

Previous comment was with regard to 'steelyork's' post re 'CL04 CSL' which 'Tommy R' (in Knutsford) was selling some 18 moths ago, when I was in the market for one.
A 2nd would be out of the question, otherwise I'd end up living in the garage!

With all the information and data you have on these cars if not in the garage, must be on the internet or whatever to find stuff
