Anything less is a very risky compromise.

Decent E46 M3 + MPSS + BBK must bring you close to the CSL for around £15k? Would u ever use the missing 15-20% anyway?

Is there only 293 remaining Csl? How many black?

Sell the mrs sell kids get bank loan and buy the 19 1/2 one that's for sale at the moment you will never get cheaper

Hi Philo - howmanyleft.co.uk - doesn't say colour I don't think.

My M-Sport 325 vert is prob feeling a bit better about things; with only 173 left - it's rarer than the CSL !

Doesn't include the ones us paddies have stashed over here Phil All but one here came from the 422 UK cars AFAIK

wasn't it suggested somewhere that a CSL could be broken for around £15K .... if that is the case then surely thats always going to set a floor in the market ?

Just to bring some glimmer of hope to the thread... I purchased my old CSL from Simpsons Motorsport for £19k with no tyres.

In the file of paperwork was the receipt from when they purchased the car from their client. No obviously it was a trade price, and the car needed some work ( nothing major - just a front end respray, inspection 2 and some discs and pads) BUT... It was bought for a fair bit less than £15k!

Probably the least amount of money a CSL has changed hands for though...

Ah, but that was back then, when they were 'two a penny', those were the days, but alas those days are no more!
I think I can safely say you won't see a CSL for sale less that 20K, in any condition. You can but wish/hope/pray, something might come along that needs work!
