Hi all,

I found this place through the Pistonheads CSL forum and just joined up as I'm hoping to buy a CSL soon. :) Just wanted to say hi before lurking and reading all the back log!

Cheers,

Jon

Hello and welcome Jon :thumbs:

Cheers all, I'm loving the banter on here so far. Seems a bit more civilised and informed the PH! ;) *ducks*

I'm off to look at a few this weekend, I'm based in London so the nearby ones are in Abingdon or Potters Bar. I've not driven one for a few years and the last E46 M3 I drove was quite tired and I still loved it so hoping to be impressed again.

Thanks for all the offers of information, two questions for starters:

What's the highest milage anyone knows of for a CSL?

How important is it to have a warranty in people's opinion/experience? If I bought one without what might go wrong that would cost big money? Are the engines as bomb proof as they seem?

Thanks again,

Jon

I haven't bothered with a warranty for over 2.5years and the car's been A1.

There was a SG car up for sale 6 months back which was on 99k miles.

Warranty was important to me at first but not so now. I doubt i will renew in April and just put the money towards a repair slush fund :smokin:
