M3_Power 636 Report post Posted January 24, 2013 Great buy on the CSL ... it's gone to a good owner guys, someone capable of bringing it back to its former glory. (and no it's not me, that'd be greedy haha). Lots of bargains to be had at that auction from what I've heard ... wish I'd picked up the GT3 : ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lots of bargains to be had at that auction from what I've heard ... wish I'd picked up the GT3 : ) Not that its run down, refurb the wheels and a couple of other small things. Its a nice car as it sits, just a few little things to make it mint. But yes, it has got to a good home. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mjh 26 Report post Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) Good Now tell them to join up on bimmersport so we can say it went to someone in the family Hi, I'm the lucky new owner of the CSL. As Tom says I will be aiming to make it "perfect" as quickly as possible. I've already ordered a set of Toyo R888 tyres for it last night as the current tyres are the wrong size and most likely not perfectly round after standing still for approx 4 years. Next week will be re-compliance week, followed by a full service and the changing of all fluids etc etc. Then any little things that need to be rectified will be done including removing the aftermarket stereo and a full wheel refurb. Within a few months it will be perfect (I hope). Then it will sit in the shed and be driven every now and then for some fun........

hybrid 1043 Report post Posted January 28, 2013 Nice one. Good to see it go to a Bimmersporter and even better to one that is restoring it to its former glory.

Hi-Tek 3 Report post Posted January 28, 2013 Tom, turns out this is owned by a friend of a friend in Istanbul (it's black as you probably know) I talked to him about it last night if you've got any questions. 12,000kms apparently. I know of one car in Istanbul with about 8000mile asking a tad under 100,000GBP ...(they are also similarly priced in Hong Kong ... so if you want to sell a CSL, send it to Istanbul or Hong Kong hehe) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
