Csl roof no longer available!!!!!!

[0-60motorsports]

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.

I agree with Pooky, look at old fat fingers and the seats he keeps getting replaced, all made in the initial production run

From my experience with NLA E30 SportEvo parts, BMW will wait for the request que to fill up to some critical mass and then reproduce a missing part.

this is what happens with parts for my rusty old ford, once the initial stock has gone.... although certain items you just cannot get anymore. It depends on whether bmw can actually get the part anymore, whether it is too cost prohibitive or if they can be bothered!

[LeinsCSL]

There are quite a few parts now NLA for my E30. eBay is usually your friend in such instances, although I don't fancy my chances of sourcing an Alpina ECU, or for that matter a CSL roof, too quickly

[NZ_M3]

Have just gotten the official word back from BMW NZ here ... correct, majority of CSL parts are now "No Longer Available".

What remains is it ...

time to buy a parts car me thinks :whistle:

I know a guy who once bought 100 alfa romeo bonnets thinking the same thing. They never stopped producing the bloody things :-D
(cant remember the model btw)

That would be just my luck,if I fell into a barrel of tits I'd come up sucking my thumb.

M3 CS is a good car mate

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

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.

[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!!

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 :-)

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.

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!

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

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.
