Numbered Registry?

RyanK · 11-05-2011, 03:22 PM

Are there any forum databases out there that give a brief history of specific CSL's? Something like the Build number and the member that had it etc? Apologies if I've completely missed it or if it's a common question that's asked.

Bit stalkerish I know, ha. Just because there's a few I've been looking at over the past couple months and it's sometimes a struggle finding a little bit of history. Have owned a couple of Mini GP's and it was pretty handy referencing to their database when buying the cars.

Cheers!

Sadly, CSLs were not numbered individually - each UK registered car was simply 'one of 422'.

Member 'shimmy' does keep a database of sorts as he's a nerd and clearly has a little too much time on his hands...

Its always worth asking about individual cars as you look at them as the odds are that someone on here has some info about it, history, etc.

Yes I do, although if those stupid shoes arrive along with it I will track you down and throw them through your windows

Ok, tis a little heavier around the boot area though, yours is made of 318 coupe boot floor

Could check the BMW System.
Shows you, service, warranty, repairs.

Sorry folks! Thought I set up an email notification system on here but guess not ha.

Thanks for all the advice. Will get on the case and keep looking. Sadly might have to hold it off until next year though due to being 21 at the moment, 22 in February which would bring the insurance costs down nicely. I can get insured on an E46 base M3 without a hitch, though the CSL demands almost £1000 extra in insurance costs!

Cheers
