Damaged CSL

[sailorbaz]

KK? You think you can refurb this Bumper? :thumbs:

That car as whole doesn't look too heavily hit, someone will get a cheap CSL. I'll be keeping an eye on it for sure. Bloody shame though. :bigcry:

Those rear wheels aren't looking too clever :bigcry:

[sailorbaz]

Oh dear, neither they do. Whops. Looks like it's fitted with Supersprint though, :thumbs:

[azrael]

Looks like relatively little damage tbh

[mattCSLnut]

Strange how the Driver side Airbag has gone Off yet the primary damage is on the front passenger side where the Airbag is in tact :smt017
I hate seeing them like this :crybaby:

Drr....... may be because at the time of the accident there wasn't a passenger in . :banghead: lol

That why the front passenger seat are fitted with occupancy pad.

I guess some of us :clown: know a lot more about this sort of stuff then others :whistle:

[sailorbaz]

CF front Grills and Supersprint, so must have been some kind of enthusiast of sorts... surprised we don't know this car.

Just goes to show we've a wee bit to go yet before finding most of the CSL's!

That impact appears to be more like an animal strike of some sort rther than a vehicle/structure type of impact, for this reason i may be in !

Fraid not Baz, austerity cuts mean that all available funds be directed to the repair of said machine .... Maybe another time ya sweaty fookin sock !

















Of course I will buy ya a beer mate ! I need to decoide first what the fook I'm going to do with it ! What cat is it if any ? It doesn't say

[s.mac]

just looks high on that shot Matt
I think Dunc is right
bonnet wing and bumper, it doesnt look that bad, shame the air bag went off. I think its close to the money now, 27k is just the market price for the car when its right, 12k to 13k max i would hazard a guess at

[DuncanR]

When does the airbag deploy, and what is the criteria.?
One handed fookers exiting Ex-muhle need not reply !!!

+ inner wing, maybe front slam panel, near side lower suspension arm, probably replacement front shocks, top mounts and replacement front wheel too, near side Xenon headlight, possibly control unit for it too and lots of other bits & bobs + it'll need to be jigged to check the front near side chassis leg is straight :whistle:

money is right Matt for what is needed :)
probably a cheap car if you were to strip, sell the bits and then turn it into to a track car ;)

The 'Register' has it from 14/1/11, and mileage and owners name :thumbs::whistle:

[mattCSLnut]

Advert says UNRECORDED which suggests it's HPI clear, despite the damage :smt017

they didnt have it long then ? :bigcry:

No, saw damage on 14/1/11, he may have had it for years!

[s.mac]

ah

Shimmy is officially CSL statto.

4095

[outnumbered]

Shimmy - is it VN53 YGE ?

[sailorbaz]

The plot thickens...

How come it says it's unrecorded? Could make strong money if it isn't on the 'other' register (Cause we all know THIS is the Official register of course), that was my line of thought.

Wonder what the story is with the rear axle/wheels/suspension.

Look forward to that beer Duncan, just need to get my stupid ar5e to Germany!

[shimmy]

I have it down as another, cant recall right now as no laptop:smokin:

[DuncanR]

[Rutkowski]

Unless someone wants to buy it and keep the car... no point buying just to fix & sell IMHO.

Front bumper alone is £3500

Unless you have one!

If its panel only and air box and engine is ok you could make some money ESP if its not recorded cat c/d

Depends on shell, air box and engine really

Thats why I would never bid blind on something like this, always view and thoroughly inspect first.

If it's not recorded this could make someone a few quid


Fit a replica bumper, cheap and easy, if done well hard to tell too.

Agreed, it would be silly to think with a few parts it could be fixed cheaply. What you've got to think is that Shane sold his cat D CSL with 30k on it recently for £19,999 (well that's what he advertised it for). This has got double the miles, so you'd have to get it pretty cheaply to make good money on it.

[shimmy]

Difference is this may not be recorded cat c/d which would make a big difference.

Prices all fixed could vary from £16-22k so it could be a nicer earner or money pit depending on the damage beneath.

I'm no expert but can't be worth anymore than £11k - prob better to strip and sell the parts

Air box £3k
Engine and loom £3k
Seats £2k
Rims £500
Interior £3k
£11.5 already with some easy labour.

[sailorbaz]

Not to mention:

Bootlid £500
Rear LED's £200
Exhaust £500-£1200 (depending on Supersprint parts)
Diff £200-300?
Survived suspension and brake parts? £500
CF roof? £500
That's not counting the glass, doors and other panels.

There's another £3K! Would be a waste to break an unregistered car though.

Fook it - break the fooker! :thumbs:

[Mark CSL]

This was the P1 car i should know i owned it for a year it had been bumped before but unrecorded it has had a OSR Quarter as well :hahaha::hahaha:

I paid 21k had it a year then sold it for 28k the boy i sold it too done the ring and spa in it quite a few times then traded it in for a GT3.

Just some history on the car

[sailorbaz]

Jawsus, this cars had an unfortunate life. Good to get a bit of history about it though.

What side 1/4 panel had it had Mark?

[paulmensley]

Pretty damn sure this was my car!
Still owed 9k from the payout.:banghead:
The airbox is broken.

[sailorbaz]

£9K??? Surely this wasn't what they offered you??? Or, is this the balance?

Judging by the photos in your other thread, this is 99% your car. What's the story with the rear axle? Judging by the impact, I wouldn't assume anything would be wrong with the rear end, diff etc, I suppose it could be when it's been lifted and put back down by a fork lift truck, the wheels haven't turned and therefore haven't had a chance to sit right. Think of when you jack your car up and lower it back onto it's wheels, you need to take the Handbrake off and roll it a bit until it sits right. That could put people off and keep the bidding down... ;-)

What happened mate, if you don't mind us asking. This world of CSL ownership is getting smaller every day.

Sorry, just read your other threads. I remember you posting before about the dodgy overtaking manoeuvre right enough.

[paulmensley]

The balance owed is £9000, I presume the salvage company are yet to pay the insurance company, hence why I'm out of pocket.
The broker assures me its in hand, and to be fair I've not been chasing it.

The rear suspension is fine, its just tripoding because the upright is shoved back and the car weight is front biased. Being dragged on and off a lorry probably hasnt helped either!

The airbox brackets are broken and the assesor was at £15000 in bits on his estimate when it was decided to write it off.

If I were a shrewd businessman with some cash, I'd buy it and strip it.

But I've just bought HKSjon's saphire black csl. Lovely chap, many thanks.

[sailorbaz]

Welcome back, look forward to some photos of this latest yoke! ;-)

Good god those Yanks must have money to burn! £1K including postage to the States for an OEM Diffuser and it sold.

True as in the UK the VAT and the Labor will kill you :)

I would assume that it will be recorded at some point as it seems to be going through official channels?

Triggers Broom II :thumbs: .... i NEED NEVER WORRY AGAIN !! fOOK CAPS

[DuncanR]

Right, so that this car gets dealt with in a sympathetic manner and by experts in their field, and possibly to the benefit of some members on here, why dont we do a group buy ? Keeping it short he is plan.
1. Group buy car, I can collect it on my trailer, meet up with the rest of the shareholders and go for a beer :beer:.
2. Organise a working party BBQ and pissup :beer: and break it at mine if all agreeable, I have the space, tools, air, power, fork trucks, transport etc. and im a Freemason and can be trusted not to nick any good bits !:hahaha:.
3. If we dont complete in a week-end, organise another working party and BBQ Pissup :beer: for those who couldnt make the first one.
4. By agreement/vote come up with a price list in excel for all salvaged parts, and even the savaged ones !... stop for a beer :beer:.
5. Offer parts to CSLR members only, in the event of more than one member wanting a part, sealed bid, highest gets it. Beers on the winner :beer:.
6. Any parts left over offer to the US market first !!! with our thanks for getting Bin Laden... ;):hahaha:.
7. Any parts left over post on M3Cutters ... our poor cousins ;). Beer on them !:beer:.
8. With the proceeds organise a CSLR run in at some trackday to be agreed, followed by .. you got it .. a BBQ and beers.:beer:.
9. After a divi up of the proceeds, anyone who would rather take cash than do the run in can have it, only fair.Beers on them though :gayfight::beer:.

This is one of my serious posts !!! ... you can but imagine the others !


PS Any of you guys who already think you would want some parts, let it be known, as If it can be seen that a few of you/us can benefit, it might actually be worth doing sooner rather than later !

[TANKSLAPPER]

Duncan, are you buy the beers ? :beer:
