300 max for me!

**Mark CSL** · 03-11-2008, 08:35 PM

I can get 34mpg at 80mph
or 12mpg on track

The 12mpg is great FUN

Mark noticed you're in Scotland do you often visit knockhill ?

Th reason I ask is a friend of mine takes part in alot of trackdays at Knocky and mentioned a Black CSL tearing up the track alot. When I suggested getting a CSL he was more than conviced this was a very convincing car after seeing it on track.

I love the broad range of MPG suggested, so far we have 7 to 34

Anything like this?

Mark - your reputation preceeds you! But if you're only getting 12mpg, you're not trying hard enough. You need to get it into single digits...

Brilliant :D

I've noticed a company called Nick Johnson in Oxfordshire have a number of CSL's in, anyone dealt with this business before ?

They also have one of those "Saphire Black faster than Silver grey" CSL's in priced £500 more than a car which has 7k miles less.

Are the Black ones really that much faster

Why dont you ask him
Nick Johnson is a member on here

I am sure there will be a reason why it is £500 more and i dont think black or grey has any thing to do with it

And yes the black 1s are faster
