I bought a brand new 2003 CSL today!!

[alexk]

Got the options list for the car does anyone know if option
231 Deletion VMax Down Control is proof the car is unrestricted???

Yes, it's unrestricted :thumbs:

[shimmy]

That would be absolutely amazing if he did Alex! :hahaha: :smokin: :smokin: :smokin:

I believe that he has also very recently driven the new M3 GTS model too! :drool:

Just texted Vale and he says that he'll only join in if he can go front of the Man Train with Glendog just behind!:bigcry:

[edylcreyob]

Yes, it's unrestricted :thumbs:

I wouldn't worry about the top speed limiter, it's not even run in yet lol :thumbs:

Yes good point I was thinking about the run in bit might have to start from scratch.

Once I get all the fluids done and any computer upgrades done I'll probabaly invest in another set of rims with "normal" road tyres and keep the originals in case I display the car sometime. Won't cry if I kerb them that way!!!!

It's good to know you are going to drive it.

[edylcreyob]

It's good to know you are going to drive it.

Always going to drive it but not a daily of course and I have it insured on the basis of less than 2500km per year.

We have "historic Plate" registration which means you can register the car cheaply but can only drive to car club event days, club meetings, repair shops etc.

Not sure I'll do that as you can't take it out for a spin when you feel like it:drool:

:thumbs: Superb purchase!!!

Good to see CSL prices are still strong across the Tasman :supz: Might just have to send mine over if I ever sell it :hahaha:

This is a unique circumstance, buyer wanted a premium for the the fact its a new car and I was happy to pay a premium, average price is a little above half original price for cars that have done 20,000km or so.

Not many to get a guide on as only 24 were delivered and at least 2 have gone to god.

[Yanto_csl]

waiting for the pics......cmon....

[edylcreyob]

Seems like I have the whole world awake and wondering where are the pics. Some are even suggesting this is a hoax I had posted on M3 site before being re directed here.

Its not a hoax the car exists I have paid a depsoit but sadly the original books and keys could not be located and I refused to take delivery until that has happened. They were located late Friday but need to be couried to where the car is (car in one state, Victoria, books in another state , South Australia) so this means no car till Monday afternoon (Aust time).:banghead:

I do hope you can survive till then.

Have a good weekend

I think 170-175 is realistic. More to the point, that's enough isn't it? How many times will we have the chance?

Aren't you missing the point Alex?

Pip :whistle:

[edylcreyob]

im waiting........................................... .............................

and hopefully tomorrow I can deliver, camera is charged and providing the courier company does what it is supposed to do then in about 22 hrs you will have all the pics you need, even from underneath hopefully.

[edylcreyob]

Well I did get the car today but very late today unfortunately so the best I can do is this little teaser until tomorrow.

First thing I did was read the running in instructions on the window!!!
