I think yours was very cheap tbh
Surprised it hung around as long as it did! From your post above it sounds like you got an even better deal! 997 posts is that a sign

HFlagos - I hope you don't mind but I called the dealer up to find out more as I too am looking for a SG CSL.
I'm a little worried about the gap from 2006-2010 - not sure what to make of it. Anyone else have thoughts on this? here is the Service History The vehicle was sold and supplied by Wallaston Motors BMW (Dealer 13220) on 16/05/2004 before it left the dealer it whent through it's Pre-deliver check and was recorded in the service book. The vehicle 1,203 miles later on 09/09/2004 recieved a running in service check at Wallaston Motors BMW, this is also recorded in the service book. 20/04/2005 @ 11,448 miles the vehicle recieved an oil change service and mico filter change at Wallaston Motors BMW 12/06/2006 @ 24,809 miles the vehicle recieved an inspection service and micor filter change at Wallaston BMW 01/04/2010 @ 36878 miles the vehicle recieved an oil change serive and Micro filter at North Oxford BMW (Dealer 15150) |

It looks right on services and mileage, but it didn't do a lot of miles over 4 years.There are plenty of garage queens out there though...
Did it have a time-based brake fluid change in there somewhere as well ? Try and HPI check to see if it that gives you more data ?

Price looks not far off, as CSL prices seem to be rising now

Will speak to my mate about it today, 4 yr gap is interesting. BMW Warranty folks normally kick up a fuss if the gap between services (regardless of mileage) is over 2 years. |

Even with the low miles over those 4 years it should have has at least an oil service in 2008, as well as brake fluid change. It is missing a service. |

4 yr old engine oil in a high revving engine that WILL have been revved very hard is a no go IMO

i saw VU04 LUZ today on Finchley Road stopped in traffic and gave a little wave and then was promptly ignored (and i was in my CSL as well). Felt a right plank!
