Another new to CSL ownership member!

Hi Everyone,

Been lurking on here for a few months - now that I own a CSL, thought I'd better do a thread introducing myself.

I bought Titan's car after viewing it last week - I've owned it a few days now and I'm really happy with it... the induction noise is immense!

Mike R helped me view the car and offered very useful advice.

I believe CSLBrian owned my car before Lee (Titan)

Here's a few pictures I took earlier today:

As well as the CSL I also own a LHD 968 CS in purple (rare option) which I've owned for nearly 10 years and a shonky old diesel Golf for work.

I won't bore you with a picture of a diesel Golf :wink:

Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking the CSL on a few road trips across Europe and the UK. There's little I want to change about the car at the moment, though I might swap the Michelin Cup tyres for Super Sports, before driving it across the Alps!

I'll see how the standard brakes cope before considering upgrading them, and after being in Mike R's CSL, the standard CSL suspension fitted to mine seems harsh compared to the H&R coilovers fitted to his CSL.

Don't want to go too far down the modding route though ;)

Cheers,

Marv

Welcome Marv

I see you've bought the faster colour;)

Modding takes a little time to take hold.

Welcome, don't worry. Shimmy won't hold it against you if you refuse his offer to get to know him. :gayfight:

Welcome and enjoy your car !

Mike R's suspension is :gayfight:

Hi Marv & Welcome
Both cars look great
Which part of the Country are you?

Thanks for the welcome :beer:

:hahaha: @the comments on Mike's suspension. I think the H&R coilovers are actually superior to the standard set up. It's not that they're soft, but they have superior damping.

Welcome to the mad house and Enjoy your car :thumbs:

Welcome and enjoy the new motor :thumbs:

Hi and niiiiice purchase :beer:

Welcome along Marv. Nice 968!

Hello and welcome :thumbs:

I see you still have the gay number plates on :gayfight: :blalalala:.

Welcome to the forum Marv.

Welcome Marv , another CSL in Suffolk, catch up with you and Mike at Snett sometime in the summer, enjoy:thumbs:

Welcome to the fold Marv :thumbs: Good to see another Cecil in East Anglia :beer:
The 968 looks good in Amethyst :smokin: I've had two 968's but found 240 BHP / 3 liter 4 pot a bit characterless and not punchy enough for me... however the chassis is sublime :smt055 and made up for the BHP deficit. ;)
A good friend of mine has a 928 S4 Manual in that same rare colour. There is no shortage of power in that. :supz:

Welcome to the register matey 👍
