Its nothing different to any other marque really.

Sorry Chris but I disagree
CSLs were made in very limited numbers, UK RHD even more so @ 422. After 10+ years only around 300 exist (maybe fewer) so the numbers are already dwindling. As these numbers reduce further, mileage (or should I say the odometer reading) will not have much of an impact on the selling price as demand will outstrip supply. Most owners will be returning their CSLs back to OEM (some are already) as this is what sells the easiest. Potential buyers will be buying purely on good condition, originality & impeccable service history... if they aren't already. Mileage or like I said earlier "the odometer reading" is only an issue if you suffer from the British Leyland mentality.
All IMHO of course
