    1800 miles is within BMW tolerance for running in service. Will not be an issue.

      Good luck with your search :thumbs:
      Thanks - I think I'll try to have a look at this one. Your SG looks great (even without the xenons!), by the way.

        That is 100% correct :thumbs: Mine had it's run in @ 1800 miles (company car mile muncher in it's early life ) and it's had extended BMW Warranty ever since with numerous Warranty claims :whistle: without any issues what so ever :thumbs:

            Good to know many thanks. Was initially thinking I'd be patient and wait for one that ticked all the boxes but will relook at that Aberdeenshire one. cheers

              Well, I went to see the Devon car (this one) and it's an absolute peach.

              The condition is absolutely as new (bar an understandably worn steering wheel). The current owner is a genuine enthusiast, who has kept the car in stunning condition.

              In looking for the right car, I was more concerned about condition than mileage - after all, the mechanicals of these cars are bullet proof and failures do not seem to follow any mileage-related trend). Anyway, long story short, I bought it!

              To say I'm thrilled doesn't even come close. What a car - the CSL has always been in my dream garage and having owned a 'vanilla' E46 M3, I knew I'd like the CSL. I can't wait for it to arrive now once all the money changes hands. I feel like a kid at Christmas.

              Thanks to everyone for all their input - I'll post more when my (!) CSL arrives. :thumbs:

                  Your post reminds me of when I got mine - between now and when you pick up will really drag, but the reward will be even sweeter !

                                Try 6,000 miles in three and a half years. Obviously not my daily driver but I only do ~8k a year anyway
