NOW SOLD M3 CSL - AP's and Warranty

Barry C · 13-05-2013, 10:32 AM

I'm moving abroad with work so this is regrettably for sale. I've been trying to put off selling it as long as possible but it makes no sense to keep it at this stage. I'm not in a rush to sell, I'll happily put it in to storage as values are increasing steadily.

The car was formerly a UK car with registration GX53VOU. It is very easy to put it back on a UK plate for any UK buyers. It's now on Irish registration 03 D 120181

The car is in mint condition inside and out, it has just been detailed in recent months.

The car has a Full AUC BMW Warranty until August 2013 with Zero Excess! (Extendable thereafter)

It has Red AP racing Brakes, front and rear with pagid RS29 pads and performance friction discs. This set up gives amazing stopping power.
It has a full service history including the all important running in service and had a recent oil change in Fahy's garage.

I had the car looked over by Elms BMW UK prior to purchase in January 2012 and it was found to be faultless aside from a slight clutch issue which the seller informed me of (common clutch slur problem). This was then replaced with a brand new clutch. It also had 6 new coil packs recently.
I just fitted 2 new Michelin Supersport tyres to the rear, fronts have loads of life left.

The car needs absolutely nothing. Anything needed has been replaced under warranty. In my ownership it has had a new rear view mirror and a new drivers seat frame under warranty. The sub frame was inspected and is perfect (common problem).
It has Aircon, Xenons and PDC.

This is a faultless example with just 53k miles.

It has a new NCT (Irish version MOT).

The price is £29k for UK buyers. It's slightly more for anywhere else as I can get a tax refund if exporting to the UK.

The car is located in Dublin. 15 minutes from the airport and 5 minutes from the port. Happy to export anywhere in the world at buyers cost or collect potential buyers at the airport.

Apologies, Have had a few PM's looking for my number.

That was the letter I received from BMW when I tried to get on the list for a CSL and was more or less told 'tough'. Most of the CSLs were reserved by speculators who thought the car would sell for around £50k new. This letter came to me before they announced they were going to be £60k and when the speculators found out they all jumped ship. All of a sudden I went from sixth on the list to second at Specialist Cars and BMW then couldn't leave me alone. I was one of the very few original customers that paid £60k for a new CSL and many of the original 440+ CSLs then sat at Thorne unsold. To my dismay they then reduced the price to around £50k for a new one at the beginning of 2004.
I treasured this car from new and had the AP brakes fitted at Murketts. When I sold the car it had carbon mirrors, steering wheel, gear shift surround, paddle flaps and OEM carbon radio blank.
I would like to buy it back but the wife said I would have to sell the 1M. I couldn't bring myself to do that so sorry I'm not in the market for it.

Great to see an original owner popping up after all these years. Hope I can keep hold of mine forever. Next plan is get her front end tarted up (Armourfend looking a little tired now) and fit some cups for the OEM look. Im doing 1k per year max so may as well run cups.

Good luck with the sale. good ad. Mine is almost the exact spec of yours, brakes mileage etc. I had no shortage of interest when I advertised and later bottled. Im sure it wont hang around for long.

Barry C · 15-05-2013, 08:28 PM

Sold.

Could have sold 10 of them if I had them. Best of luck to the new owner. It's staying in Ireland.

Well done. Great spec.
