Talking Going to view a CSL - Checklist...

Right guys going to see a CSL tomorrow or Sat failing that. I'll tell you what I've checked so far, but would appreciate it if you can think of anything else I can ask/check.

Checks already done:

HPI - all good
BMW factory spec - all good
BMW Service history - got garages and dates but don't know what was done each time it went in yet

The 'Shimmy' check - Andy couldn't find any records of this CSL until now

Checks for tomorrow:

Tyres
Disc's & Pads
Shut lines
Pannel gaps
Bolster wear
Steering wheel wear
Rear subframe

See if/when it's had:

Clutch
Diff
SMG Pump
Steering rack
Alternator
Vanos
Head-gasket
Springs
RTAB's
Front lower wishbones

Paperwork:

All receipts
Stamps

Obviously i'm not suggesting if any of the above hasn't been replaced before that it would put me off, but it's just something to bare in mind when assessing the value of the car.

Anything else I'm missing?

Any help appreciate guys
