    Going to look at this CSL over the weekend

    Hi! New member here, i'm Dan from Edinburgh I drive a E46 M3.



    I'm thinking about selling the car to buy a CSL.

    The price of them seem to vary a lot! I was wondering if anyone on here could perhaps give a rough value of the car i'm going to look at?

    It is a 2003 model, no xenon headlamps, it does have the BMW business stereo, PDC and also climate control. The owner has just put extended BMW warranty on it with road side assistance (for one year) The car has covered 47,000 miles and is completely standard.

    I've been told theres a slight scuff on one of the bumpers and the back tyres will need replacing soon.

    Heres a quick photo of it



    Can anyone give me a rough price of what this might be worth?

    Thanks!

    Hope to be a proud owner soon! :wink:

        As a buyer I would want to pay sub £23k as a seller I would want £25k.

        What's it for sale for?

              With the CSL not having the optional xenon headlamps would this have a big effect on the resale? It doesn't bother me at all personally.

              The owner has still to come back to me with a price

                    Some say yes, some like you are not bothered. I wasn't bothered, it cost me 200 ish notes to fit a set.

                    What do you think you want to pay for it?

                    Without xenons you may limit audience but IMO it won't knock more than £500 off the price.

                    I would rather a car with no xenons an good than xenons and a shed.

                      I would say that xenons and PDC have slight effect on the numbers interested in buying the car, therefore you may take a bit longer to sell and depending when you sell this may mean you end up dropping the price more.

                      Worse for air con and overall car condition though as Lawsy so rightly says.

                        I wasn't bothered about xenons either and I don't think it makes any real big differance come resale time:wink:

                          You had to go non-Xenons to offset boot pasty weight though mate...

                            PH comparison.....same spec and slightly less miles.

                              Thats ok.

                              I'd pay the "going rate" for it! I think 24 - 25K ish sounds ok! I want to have a good look over it and make sure its perfect! I'm not too bothered about the bumper scuff, I can have that painted.

                              Anyone think it could be a good investment? I can't see the prices dropping too much! I don't really do a lot of miles anyway and I never use the car for work!

                              Has anyone ever went from a E46 M3 to a CSL? Much noticeable difference?
