Afternoon all, third time lucky for me. Just pulled the trigger on a SB CSL, picking it up on Valentines's day :smt055 now that's got to be a good omen.

Nice Gruppe M (cheers Chris :beer:) waiting to go on and Spring is nearly here, can't bloomin' wait

Time to renew my membership me thinks :supz:

What made you come back for a third time? And what did you have in between? I've not even had mine a year and I'm getting itchy feet already although I think that's more due to the fact it's been sorn'd for the last 3 months and I've forgotten how bloody brilliant it is.

Quite honestly it felt as though I had unfinished business with it. Sold my second one to Nick on here as I had a one time opportunity to get into a 996 GT2 (which I will never sell :thumbs:) and I know many have said this but something about the CSL kept drawing me back. The kids are a little older now as well and starting to take an interest in cars, so the practicality side comes into play. Not many cars that drive as well as this but can handle the weekly shop, car seats etc.

Lastly, it just seems to be getting better looking with age. Always lusted after an E30 M3 but the CSL just captured me, very few cars as special around this price point.

Really is a special car and as BMW and most other motor manufacturers change to spec heavy cars, the purity of the CSL should be celebrated. Much like the GT2, although that bugger tries to put me in a hedge when driving hard :hahaha:

Also managed to get my hands on a Gruppe M and never liked my neighbours :blalalala:

Thanks for the reply, only thing I'd change the CSL for at that price is an E92 M3 but I've had one of them so I think I'll just hold onto it :thumbs:

Thanks for the welcome gents :thumbs:

Well after a 7 hour return journey on Valentine's day (yes the other half was delighted...), obligatory photo below. Never saw my old CSL's from this angle.:smt055

My old man drove her back and he absolutely loved it. He is a dedicated Porsche nut, however, his words "he now sees what the fuss is about!"

Looks awesome in Black Nathan, like I said I think anyone owning a SG car would happily try a SB and vice versa.

Need to get some vid's when you have that Gruppe M fitted :hahaha:
