CSL wanted - Page 5

You should just buy Matt's one now, as its well known and had all the preventative and maintenance stuff done to it. And before he has a change of heart and decides to keep it!

If anyone is thinking of selling around then, please do let me know, or keep me in mind in thenew year!

One quick question, I looked at the car at Barteltt's when I took the E46 for a service back in March/April time and thought it was a good price at £31k, however, they now appear to all be priced aroudn £40k+. Am I likely to be able to find a car around £35k, or have I missed the boat on that one?

There is a possibility I might sell mine at some point so I can buy another 911 .. this will depend on wether I can find the right 911 though

Bounce - where are you in Cornwall? I'm originally from St. Ives, moved away a while ago but my family are still down that way.

St Ives mate funnily enough,pm me your family details I probably know them

Cheers 73CSL, if you find a Porsche let me know! Any idea of roughly what you'd be looking for?

Bounce - family name is champion, not many of us down that way!

If you can purchase now then I would.

2016 will only see prices on the climb again.

If you have to hold off til the new year, go and view MattCSLnutt's CSL which is now up for grabs.

Place a deposit before he changes his mind!!!!!

You won't find a better car this side of £50K.

Cheers Ben

but Mr "Rchamps81" may have to join an orderly queue mate

as I've already had two serious enquiries, one of which was from one of DU VAYs previous owners

Can's say who yet, as nothing has been finalised.

One general observation of pricing for cars, which I think probably applies as much to the CSL as it does to other cars. Prices are generally set based on mileage but you should buy on condition, so my advise would be to set your budget which will decide the mileage of the car, then buy the best condition one you can find at that mileage, because a well looked after car with a lot of preventative work done will be up for the same price as a dog.
