Unfortunately I have to sell my CSL which I bought just before Christmas.
I've just spent £ks on it at Simpsons with Intrax IK2s, RTAB kit, bucket drivers seat, drivers harness, APs, PF discs, AP pads etc.
If I sell it with all the bits it will obviously make it an expensive CSL compared to others, so should I remove all the bits and sell it standard, or is there a market for very track prepped cars?

Personally I'd strip it, you open up the market for yourself, you'll get more interested selling a standard car, most would buy standard imho then possibly do some mods to it.
A lot of people will shy away from a car with mods on, personally i'd buy a modded car if the standard parts were part of the deal, and only if the mods were decent.
I found when I sold my last E46 M3 I had minimal interest with it modded, I had decent bits like yourself, KWv3's, AP's etc etc, I then sold all the mods seperately, and actually made more money back than the amount I wanted for the car with the mods on, yes its a bit more hassle but its worth it.
Btw if you want to sell your AP's / Discs, shout me, I'm in the market for some :beer:

Strip it, you'll make much more money back and the car will be easier to sell IMO
I've just brought a standard CSL from Simpsons and about to get intrax fitted and want AP's - send me a list of your modifications and how much you want and see if we can come to a deal ;)
Defo intersted in AP's and drivers bucket/harness
