Does anyone know this one too: VU04LUZ

[HFLagos]

HFlagos - I hope you don't mind but I called the dealer up to find out more as I too am looking for a SG CSL.

I'm a little worried about the gap from 2006-2010 - not sure what to make of it.

Anyone else have thoughts on this?

here is the Service History

The vehicle was sold and supplied by Wallaston Motors BMW (Dealer 13220) on 16/05/2004 before it left the dealer it whent through it's Pre-deliver check and
was recorded in the service book.

The vehicle 1,203 miles later on 09/09/2004 recieved a running in service check at Wallaston Motors BMW, this is also recorded in the service book.

20/04/2005 @ 11,448 miles the vehicle recieved an oil change service and mico filter change at Wallaston Motors BMW

12/06/2006 @ 24,809 miles the vehicle recieved an inspection service and micor filter change at Wallaston BMW

01/04/2010 @ 36878 miles the vehicle recieved an oil change serive and Micro filter at North Oxford BMW (Dealer 15150)

Cheers for this buddy, certainly don't mind at all! :beer:

Will speak to my mate about it today, 4 yr gap is interesting. BMW Warranty folks normally kick up a fuss if the gap between services (regardless of mileage) is over 2 years.

Even with the low miles over those 4 years it should have has at least an oil service in 2008, as well as brake fluid change.

It is missing a service.

4 yr old engine oil in a high revving engine that WILL have been revved very hard is a no go IMO

The oil needs changed every 2 years even if it is not used but if it comes from a BMW dealer they must be cool with it.

The prices are going up so 29k sounds about right and with a bit haggling 28k is a good price if it has 2 years warranty that's another 2k making it 26k :supz:

2 yrs is too long too Mark.

2 yrs is too long too Mark.

I am with you Lawsy but If the car is in storage and not running its should be ok

But if BMW are ok with it that's all that matters.

Reminds me of when I was driving down Harpenden high street in my old 911 a couple of years ago, nice sunny day, my 8-year old boy in the passenger seat. He says "Dad, why is that guy waving at you? Do you know him?". I look up to my right and there's some bloke, mid-forties, in his Mondeo, doing this :wanker:.

Don't get that in a CSL.

Had that day 2 of 911 ownership. Sitting at 70 on the A1 minding my own business and some pondlife pulls alongside in his rusted old people carrier. Gives it the coffee beans and drives off. Gives you a nice warm feeling inside :smokin:

Never had any issues in the CSL.
