Its on my photobucket account and in pistonheads classifieds at present. 500bhp and 900kg :-)
Plan is to go back to something quick ish which will do the odd trackday without wilting but also be good for weekend fun in Derbyshire and further afield

Beautiful !

Cant see me ever selling tbh. Amazed the values haven't yet taken off like mk1 mk2 escorts etc. They are slowly creeping though at last. 15k min now for a really nice one and 19k has been achieved i believe. Bargain for a sorted car but they were rot boxes and need a lot of restoration.

LolaChris · 05-03-2015, 11:06 AM

at present i have two definite choices i need to get my head round which one to go for, its an M3 CSL or classic shape 911 (poss 993 or 964) with a top budget of £40k max. the metallic grey CSL is really looking good for what i would like to do, summer runs and the odd trackday, being road driven to and from.

is there anywhere specifically to look for CSL's other than here and Pistonheads?
they appear to be as rare for sale as my Sunbeam lotus was!

LeinsCSL · 05-03-2015, 02:43 PM

I had a similar choice to make a few years ago, and just didn't find the 993 C2S as exciting as the CSL. I'd dearly love to have one along with it though

The plan was to try and get into a 964 RS after a while, but that gap from the CSL has widened ever so slightly

There are still a few CSLs over here in Ireland, but I don't know of anyone thinking of selling. Like others, it's the fear of regret and not being able to get another later on
