Default Finally got my CSL !

Hi,

Well, after nearly 30 years of unbroken BMW ownership and over 7 years after seeing my first CSL I finally own one!

Just got home with it and feel like my 'little collection' of BMWs is finally complete!

SG, turned 30K miles on my drive home, BMW Warranty, no mods.

Hello to all!

Derin

Thanks Guys.

I have tomorrow plus a rare weekend off from work so will have time (in the cold light of day!) to survey my 'madness'

It's been a stressful day with one thing and another (i.e the most expensive car I've ever bought, train journey with two changes after work to collect it , driving back in the dark through traffic etc) but looking forward to the morning and seeing it!

God! I hope I've done the right thing?

I just felt if I didn't do it now I'd "miss the boat"? I've not so much as missed the boat but jumped out of the boat at the wrong time in the past:

And now somehow I feel (hope) this CSL will complete my collection of BMWs:

1) Still on 26K miles:

2) 3rd from last non-M5 E34 Saloon ever built on the very last day of E34 production and still on 39K miles:

Pics soon hopefully!
