I was kidding. My car was very honest warts and all.

Just had been used extensively and maintained extensively.

My car was also briefly owned by a guy who is in a chair after a bad bike accident, and I bought it off him. Think he's known to a few on here. He was driving it with the hand controls when we went out on the first part of the test drive, seemed to work OK ! In fact the accelerator pedal has still got the holes in it from where they were removed.

What a coincidence, my wheel chair guy was a Jonathan from Edinburgh, perhaps he had two CSL’s ?

He sold my car in 2004.

Historically CSLs have large % of guys/gals with disabilities mainly due to bikers who have bad accidents and stil want a thrill, sMg CSL was one of only cars
With option of adapter foot or hand controls at the time without having to resort to a sloppy auto box

Straight out of the box I can think of 7 guys
