New owner, SG CSL

[HFLagos]

Just wanted to introduce myself to everyone, I recently bought my first CSL. Here are the details:

Silver Grey
Xenons, A/C, PDC, Rain Sensor, CD/Business RDS
21k miles

It came from the factory with the delimited map, apparently one of six cars to do so. Has been looked after by Murketts from the beginning. Initially owned by DoctorD on bm3w/mtorque, the car was then purchased by a good friend of mine who has now moved onto a Challenge Stradale/BMW 1M. I have known about this car since it was purchased new, was also featured in the Evo buying guide a few years back.

On top of factory spec, it also has AP 6 pot fronts and Supersprint exhaust (centre). Furthermore, the exterior has been shielded with a protective film just about everywhere, there is not a single chip/scratch on the car. Inside, there is also protective film on every carbon fibre part.

I used to lurk on bm3w/mtorque when the CSL first came out, I have wanted the CSL for a long time but persisted with various widebodied air cooled 911's until I finally got round to buying a CSL a few weeks ago. Prior to that I used to own a Lancia Delta Integrale Evolution II in Lagos Blu, hence the forum ID. Pics of current & previous cars here:

In hindsight, I should have bought the CSL earlier. This car is everything I dreamt it would be and more. They say "never meet your heroes" and I was quite anxious the first time I drove the CSL, leaving it as long as possible just in case it did not live up to my expectations, but I was smitten.

I have been reading this forum for a while now, it really is a fantastic source of information with some rather amusing banter thrown in as well! I just want to reiterate my thanks to all those who have contributed so much to this forum as it allows folks like me to learn so much about the CSL.

Cheers

Welcome Taz, well done on the purchase. You think you have a nice looking interior, if you get a chance, have a look at mine to see what the interior of a CSL should really look like mate !!
