Csl roof no longer available!!!!!!

[Obioban]

Well if this is true then looks like im pretty much buggered as I was really looking forward to getting an OEM CSL roof for my M3 in the near future.

You and me both. I would have ordered it long ago if I had known it was going to go NLA.

Hi thanks yes the E30 is a bit ropey as most are this is a early Sport pre facelift

Something about the E30s they go sideways at will

They certainly do, and great when fitted with an LSD

Love the E30s! :thumbs:

But I am a big BMW fan .... M3 CSL is my favourite BMW. At the moment I have M3 CS Coupe Manual; E46 323Ci Coupe; E30 325i Sport. Love a CSL though :-)

Mr Six,

You obviously don't know Alex or me well enough to have got that joke.....



and what makes you so sure park lane are better than any other stealers?



apart from that - how do:beer:

Hi mate
I was on a BMW Car Club GB trip to Park Lane last week. We had a tour of all the showrooms service and parts departments and lunch.
They were explaining on parts tour how they deal with requests for parts how they check stock in UK. There are 2 warehouses in UK for BMW. Also explained his they check stock in Germany. They also said often they get cases where sometimes a part is NLA but they always double check with BMW AG in Germany as sometimes they have a part there. They were explaining they go the extra mile compared to other BMW Dealers. Well I guess they would say that. Park Lane are also owned by BMW UK. I have ordered many parts myself on my BMWs and Lee is a good guy. Just my two cents worth. They also deal with lots of BMW Classic queries all over the world such as E9 3.0 CSL, 2002s, 328s .... Etc.

And if they don't have a part they will register your interest. Also Lee keeps detailed records of orders; requests etc which I don't think other BMW Dealers do. During the tour I was asking him about M3 CSL parts and the Park Lane MD. they can make any part but is down to demand .... Obviously cost is an issue too. And if they cannot make it chances are they will know one if their suppliers or get the original drawings from BMW AG.

Yes I don't know anyone here so I might not understand some of these jokes. But I am a big BMW fan .... M3 CSL is my favourite BMW. At the moment I have M3 CS Coupe Manual; E46 323Ci Coupe; E30 325i Sport. Love a CSL though :-)

Feck off!!! We've spent the last year telling Jim how shite they are!:whistle::wink::hahaha:

Mean while back in the real world

For those of u that are after M3 CSL parts u are better off contacting BMW Park Lane Classic Lee/Jamie and if the part is NLA they will make a note of requests and encourage BMW to produce more parts unlike other BMW Dealers :-)

Just spoke with Lee at BMW Park Lane. He reckons replacement splitters are available and put an order in for me.

So we'll see what happens. Half expecting a NLA phonecall.

Nice one.

BMW Switzerland told me that they will definitely produce all the parts CSLs need.

The major issue was that many CSL-wannabes put CSL parts and BMW does not like this.

True for CS/CSL parts when buying new u have to supply a correct VIN. Though I am sure lots have been able to obtain these genuine parts very easily

Well I have a bodywork warranty so if my roof were to be faulty within the 12 years I hope they have tucked at least one away!

I'm fairly sure they'll adopt the policy of banking orders and doing a run when they deem demand is enough. Common practice these days for manufacturers. Of course, they'll put the prices where they want.
:bigcry:

As mentioned before, I guess the CSL will pass into their Classic's department quite soon.

Im pretty sure it WAS you, You CSL parts ho!

[daytonaviolet]

At least one roof made it into the US via the dealer network but then BMWUSA caught on and restricted all CSL parts from import into the US.

ohh.. i wonder if that was me :gayfight: oops!!
