In the future the optionless one may be more desireable to buyers, but most like creature comforts, most requests on here seem to want a/c, xenons, I used mine this year in the summer and had no issues, I dont use it much as I use my work van everyday then in the family bus of weekends. I did not miss the a/c one bit, i only tend to use ac in traffic queues in my other cars.

A real boffin/purist may want an optionless one, but the masses will desire creature comforts.

I was looking for a bare bone, and still miss A/C on the trips to Italy.
Go for the optioned one.

It's a little bit more.

Radio incl. Speakers / 5,8kg - 7,1kg, depends on the Radio. A/C 19kg.
totally filled system. Xenon incl. sprayer 2,5kg. PDC 1,8kg.

It's not so much, but on the other side i still can keep my weight.

Thanks for all the information you guys. Would you all be willing to keep an eye out for one for me??? I know to look on Pistonheads and eBay, but anywhere else I could look? How about German sites? I really want an RHD though.

Thanks again!

LHD CSLs are at a £10 000 premium (at the moment) over the UK RHD CSL prices and there are some Europeans, buying RHD CSLs for import back to Europe. If I was in their shoes, I would do the same
