End of an era today as I watched my CSL being driven away by Ben (cslsuperfan) bringing to an end my ownership of the past 10 and a half years...

Without sounding too gay I have so many special memories of my CSL and shared so many awesome times amongst great friends from this very forum that they will stay with me always. It was a very hard decision to contemplate selling but for various reasons the time had come to let her go.

I move on with no immediate plans to replace the CSL but am happy at least in the knowledge that my car has passed on to a fellow forum member and enthusiast who will look after her and treat her to a visit to the Nürburgring every now and then! Enjoy Ben!

Don't panic though - I'll still be lurking here on the CSL Register so you haven't got rid of me just yet... ;)

Sad day but as you say gone to a good home that will use the car for what was intended Track days, he has already asked me what tracks days am I doing next year.

Maybe like Ben you will be back in the seat of a CSL in a couple of years :thumbs:

That is certainly an end of an era. Glendog74 and CSL are two names that I never thought would part. Great memories though buddy.
