Wanted CSL <30k miles - WTF?

Pip1968 · 13-01-2011, 01:17 PM

Just trying to stimulate some conversation but why do most people want a sub 30,000 mile CSL? The car is now between six and seven years old which means it would have to average only 5,000 or so miles a year. I cannot imagine there are that many sub 30s left. I say that even though mine has 28,500 on the clock but still......

Any options to treat it like a lady - as long as she's nicely buffed and all that? Or, needs attention from time to time, but good to have around, etc...

Mines just done 17k, bought it at 14 but it keeps the miles down as i work offshore si it's tucked up while out here.

Not for sale but there are still some about with low miles, i get the impression they tend to hold there money well.

Totaly standard too thought ive about mods but i spend more money on the mountain bikes !

Ohh and got the plate CL04CSL

Cheers

Had mine a year now, put 5k miles on it, although its been forced to stay in the garage for the last couple of months due to 3 foot of snow most weeks

Life in the highlands.

Managed to pick up the Reg F9 STM for £650 a while back, opinions please if you think its a little on the "Chav" side, just seemed like a good price at the time.

Obviously I would never have it spaced to read F9ST M on the car

I was going to ask what "F9 STM" stood for...

Don't do it!

Oh and hello neighbour (sort of)
