I think i fancy a CSL...

MCSL · 01-03-2013, 12:20 PM

Hi all, been advised via PistonHeads to ask here - can anyone point me in the direction of a good, straight CSL? Currently waiting until end of May for my new car to be built/delivered and got itchy feet - hence hoping someone can steer me in the right direction, or as equally important, advise me of any cars to avoid! feel free to pm me. Cheers.

I had the same itch the end of last year..... Best thing I've done in a long long time.

I think it's take a ticket time on here at the moment. You're probably about 9th in the queue I'd say!

Saying that, if anyone wants to straight swap for a 964 RS, let me know

I might even throw in the ferry tickets for Munich in May

But alas not a 964 RS to swap by the sounds of things, so I'm out

Best of luck with the search, and if you get one sorted soon get yourself onto the Munich trip if the book is still open

Sorry Leins, no 964 RS

can't decide between 'upping' the budget and looking for a low-miler, or buy one with 50-60k on the clock. As a 2nd car it'll prob do approx 3-4k miles/yr (if i keep it). Mmmm

Have you driven one yet? I spotted one 50 miles from me and went for a test drive as I had a day off work. I put down a deposit pretty soon after and looked into selling my E46 M3 and Mk1 Escort Mexico. It's the best car I have owned and wont be going anywhere for a very long time, they are fantastic cars that have to be driven to be believed

Demand seems to be outstripping supply at the moment though !

The CSL is the first car i have owned that ive not played a CD up loud yet !!
the sound of the car is much better !!!

No. Don't think i'll be disappointed though

A mate of mine has had 2, would have another, and deeply regrets selling his last one (BM04 CSL). I kick myself for not buying it at the time...18k miles SG. Apparently got totalled
