Hi all
Thought i would join and say hi!. Ive just been out for a test drive in a silver grey CSL and got hooked instantly. The noise, interior, steering. everything really. Deposit has been put down for it :smokin:
Cant wait till the end of week when the funds have gone through. Looking forward to getting used to the car every day as its going to be a daily driver.
Car is one of Nick Johnson's. Great test drive and very helpful and friendly chap. Anyway, il stop rambling, im off to look at more videos of them on youtube :-D

Welcome James
I am sure you will love the CSL
What have you been driving before ?? :thumbs:

[CSLjimmy]

Thanks for the welcome mate
Before this it was a focus RS which i was awsome. Loved the handling for a front wheel drive car

then an Skyline R32 GTR. This had a big single turbo and about 500hp, huge turbo lag then all the power at once, scared the crap out of me,Sold this quite quickly to be honest. Acceleration made by brother feel sick in his stomach.Here she is

after that i bought an R34 GTR as i fancied more on the skyline theme. had this one for a while, was stock apart from the exhaust. went really well and not much turbo lag cause of the twin turbos. Finally saw it drive away on wednesday, quite sad to see it go. Here is a pic of it

Always fancied a CSL and just decided to take the oppertunity to drive one. fell in love instantly, deposit was put down. Just love the interior and the carbon fiber and the whole feeling of the car. Nice place to be.

James.

I always Fancied the skyline R34.

You will be like a new kid now ? waiting on the morning to go and get the CSL believe me it is worth the wait.

And if you think it is good on road wait till you try it on track

Welcome to the board - not been long on here myself :smokin:


I was toying with getting an R34 whe i sold my Evo - opted the M3 route which was nice but not quite there, after that went for a test dive in a CSL and was smitten :smt055


Havent looked back! :thumbs:

Welcome to the fold mate, you will love the RWD, especially in this weather. And, I won't even mention that NOISE!!! :thumbs:

[Jaw_F430]

Welcome and enjoy your new car :thumbs:


Which one did you go for off Nick?


I have had mine for a week and the noise never gets boring :drool:

[CSLjimmy]

Thanks for the kind welcome guys

Jaw F430, i went for the Grey Silver 39500 mile one. Its £28,995, its the fifth CSL on his stock web page. Looks to have been very well looked after and interior looks lovely condition. There was a black one that looked lovely but my R34 was black so fancied a change in colour.
Cetainly looking forward to that noise everyday :smokin:

Top buy :thumbs: I test drove this one and couldn't fault it. It is a very tidy car. Have you took the warranty out on it?

You will have tell me how it compares to the RS when you get it as my brother has an RS. Not letting him drive my CSL :hahaha:

Welcome to the fold! It's an amazing car and I bet that this week can't pass quickly enough.
Believe me, youtube clips will help a little but you'll struggle to sleep.
Really rate the Focus RS and the R34, very impressive cars both. I'm sure you'll find it a different challenge in RWD N/A in comparison.
You'll struggle to decide what to replace it with when the time comes - hopefully that'll be a long way off. ;-)

Welcome mate.

The CSL is an addiction! :drool:

[CSLjimmy]

Thanks guys.

The revrant- Focus RS was a more focused and cuckable car than the R34, that was larger. Problem with it was that with the 4 wheel drive and steering it felt a bit clinical, couldnt feel the road through the steering.

Jaw F430- Nice, did seem really tidy inside and out. all the alacantara looked new, will be taking out the warranty out aswell. I have a robert stern close to me where il take it. From the first experience with the car it felt very much like the focus. Very pointy, gocart like. except in the CSL all the power is there without any lag. This was quite bad in the RS and the torque steer was quit scary. Very much looking forward to the end of the week now :beer:
Think it will go slowly though...
