View Full Version : CSL owner from Istanbul
Clubber
18-12-2013, 08:01 PM
Hello everyone, I've been a long time lurker to this great site for all things CSL.
I am ///M Fanatic and have been using many M cars over the years. I finally acquired my very own CSL last month. It is a '04 SG with 60k miles. I bought it from its first owner with full BMW Service history.
I only replaced some of the worn interior parts such as Steering Wheel, smg lever, door sills etc. Also finished an oil service and rear disks/pads replacement. She drives like a champ. Each drive is a smile from ear to ear.
I go to the ring every year so hope to meet some of you there if I can this summer.
Thanks for looking.
Here are a few pictures of her from a recent photoshoot of my collection, enjoy,

Very cool photos! :notworthy:
I think we stayed at the same apartments a few years back at the Ring.
We’d a good laugh at my mate, he came in one day saying there’s some boy out there washing his E30 with bottles of Evian water.

I think I remember you guys. You mean the private apartments near the Adenau entrance of the track ? I think it was August '08 ?
I can explain the extravagant washing :) The car had 1200km of road grime and dirt and I couldn't let my first ring outing to be in such shameful state :)
Here's a picture... It is a small world ...

EDIT : There is a suspiciously large amount of water residue on the ground around the wheels of your friend's CSL. Perhaps he was taken by my washing technique and gave it a go himself :)

Indeed, the ‘www’ has made the world a small place.
That was another mate in the CSL, he didn’t like brake dust sitting on his wheels, admittedly I probably cleaned mine as well only I couldn’t be arsed getting up as early to do it! Tho I’d say neither of us used Evian bottled water.... my mate would’ve been to miserable to buy it & I probably used whatever he used. :hahaha:

Hi Dan, wing is NLA from AC Schnitzer so your best bet is ebay although the prices skyrocketed since last year...

You can, they are on the first page of the thread...
