Hey all,
As my search for a CSL continues (Many thanks to Leins for his help today too :beer:) I spotted this RHD Silver grey example in Berlin. As you can see the car has been exported from the UK and is now German registered, a quick HPI check confirmed this also.
Since I could be travelling to Berlin next week to look at the car, I was wondering if anybody is familiar with the reg? LA04ZWE or M3LCU ?? The car was only exported last year so I'm hoping it might be familiar to some of you!
Cheers,
Ciaran

It was funtimes on here, and it had done 109k miles when he had it. 100% been clocked by at least 60k miles.

Woah! Glad you spotted that Lawsy. That's saving me a trip to Berlin at least!! Sad to see cars like that being clocked, it looked like a very well minded car up until then :(
I just hope that we don't see others turning up like that

Its inevitable. They think they have a shield, when importing exporting. They dont expect a prospective German buyer to be on a UK site fishing for info. And this CSL lot are quite keen, reg numbers ring bells and the info is out there.

No probs at all Ciaran, just a pity it didn't turn out to be the right car for you. Don't worry, a good one will turn up soon

Great spot Lawsy! Morse, Columbo & Poirot would all be proud of that piece of work :). Shocking stuff all the same though! :smt103:smt103:smt103

I'll bide my time and see what comes up. Seen a couple of other cars for sale in the UK at good prices but as usual the Euro-GBP exchange rate is not favorable :(
I heard you had a quick blast up the road with Brian's E30 afterwards too :thumbs:

Certainly did, that E30 can really shift along :) Some random E39 M5 decided to join in too :supz:
