Lotus driver converted

[TommyR]

hello guys,

been trying to sign up for days but had a trouble with the regristration page.

basically just put my exige up on the market after having a 30second blast in a CSL last weekend.

It has always been a car i have been interested in but we lotus folk get a sbit sticky in all the light weight this and corner weight that etc etc.

anyway im totally sold, the csl i was lucky enough to get a passenger ride in was all it took..

so my lotus is on the market and im in no hurry to seek out a preferably SG sub 30k miles CSL...
the noise keeps me up at night....

anyway thought id say bonjour

Haha me as well mate, gave up on GT3 for now after a few dodgy cars and a new business venture thats cropped up. :thumbs:

[TommyR]

Dodgy GT3s

when your spending that sort of money i guess you got the tread like a ballerinea..
id be in there like a bull in a china shop buying the first pretty one i could afford

good luck with the new venture

[toenheel]

Im going to hold out for a gen 2 maybe next year, see how it goes may end up just loving a CSL that much I dont bother lol. Good luck with the sale looks an absolute cracker!!

Welcome to the both of you chaps, good luck in your hunt for the perfect CSL's. Go for Grey by the way, by far the fastest.

Welcome to the fold and best of luck with Cecil hunting :thumbs:
One thing I'd say from personal experience and IMHO is there's no point at all getting "hung up" about the sub 30K mileage CSL, unless you're after a "Garage Queen" :gayfight: and willing to pay the £30K + price tag for the pleasure. The best CSLs are the ones in regular use and most of these are now well over 40 K miles :smokin: BMW Extended Warranty is more beneficial to New CSL owner then the low mileage :thumbs:

[TommyR]

sounds about right that, few people have said that, there is a nice csl on PH with 32 on it

Welcome chaps.:beer: Funny how a small ride in a CSL makes you go all silly and want one.

I keep thinking about a 7GT3 or RS and probably will one day. But in the real World and current economic climate I feel the CSL does a good 90% of the job but stays nicely under the radar attention wise. You can choose exactly when and where to strategically unleash the noise.

also can you buy a warranty for any csl? i dont understand how the warranty works

[Bounce]

you can renew a lapsed warranty on this csl as it has a full service history. It will cost you a little more in the first year to renew, i think its around £900 fully comp,but well worth it as most on here will agree.

thanks with BMW ?

what id like to do is go for a ride in a csl with a spotless smg, so i know how its supposed to feel when i go and test drive them.
i suppose if i dont do this i may get a lumpy box and not realise it..?

does anyone live local to wilmslow/macclesfield/stockport etc
