Only 1 CSL for sale at the moment

[73CSL]

some people like the torque of a big V8 , or a turbo unit ... press the throttle at any revs and away you go , makes overtaking easy & lazy

I like that in my diesel

For others like myself, I prefer an engine that is reletavily peaky and needs to be worked to get the best from it .. my 1973 2.4S is a prime example of this as it doesn't come on cam until 5500 rpm amd then it flys

horses for courses

Has NJ sold the £70k no-option one? Can't see it on his site anymore

Just read all 14 pages...

Interesting thread on a previous csl owner disliking the csl despite posting an 8:02 ring lap.

Obviously not quick enough

BTG no doubt, still 37 seconds off the pace :whistle:

Matt my attempt at late night ribbing didn't come off.

The front end resto followed by an ad in the "car's for sale section"!!!

Are you off to see the Lightweight csl @ Nick Johnson's?

Nick will let you drive all the available cars he has in stock. Great way to a establish a "back to back" comparison.

Watch out for the Sapphire Black Cesils...a little off the pace compared to the Silver Grey thoroughbreds!!!! :blalalala:

The owner has the car back at the moment so think we are arranging the viewing around West London / Berkshire. I'm pretty certain I want a grey CSL and will buy on condition and reasonable price, which is a little off kilter with the one NJ has on offer. Does he as a dealer have a good rep? Are there others I should contact? Probably a private sale is the better option and have bought most of my best cars privately in the past!
Exciting times though.

FYI... be aware that 18K mile no option CSL had the Running In service at 400 miles from new which is way too early so may have not been run in properly + it's scheduled services are beyond the BMW recommended 2 year intervals. Also check the front wings/lower door edges right to the edge and inside the wheel arch to make sure there are no stone chips developing into blisters.
