But it isn't! It now has the option of cup wheels fitted, so it is no longer "pure".

If Frankie Howard was still with us he'd be using your material

All the selectable options that were originally available, are listed in the 'Owners' section..!

Personally I don't understand the hype, why would the cheapest CSL to buy, be worth more than the most expensive CSL with all options fitted?

The ad suggests that it's as BMW intended (a race bread M3 for the road) prompts the question - is it delimited? If not, then so much for being pure!

Being delimited was an option wasn't it? Either it is a no option car, or it has the options to make it as lightweight and track focussed as possible. I would go for delimited and a badge delete

It is nonsense, but if I was selling one and trying to squeeze maximum money from it then I would probably believe it all too.

I think it's definitely worth that to get a no-option car! Someone needs to buy this fast

(When it sells I might have a different opinion though

)

I do find it ironic that a poverty spec car is now worth the most

Excuse me for being a dumb ass but why has it had the subframe replaced at that mileage? Who was the previous owner? Stig? Suppose he is out a job now hence the sale

Maybe it was just a preventative "fix", as in strengthened, instead of having to be replaced due to cracks?

Convinced this is an age thing rather than use thing. Many have been replaced in last couple of years regardless of mileage.

Let me guess, the fact that the majority of cars have reached the end of their 10 year warranty period within the last coupe of years has nothing to do with it at all ?

But let's get this straight, you really think a piece of pressed mild steel just cracks with age ? No kind of continuous stressing resulting in fatigue is required ?
