Selling my black CSL - mint

[deleted_user_0_csl]

Yeah maybe a trader would offer low 20's.

Trade offered me £23k for my CSl (a BMW dealership too !) with 20k miles about 6 mths ago so feck knows what they will offer in this climate.....

If someone is selling their CSL's for under 20k or under then it's because they HAVE to get rid....desparate. Most will hang on for more...Must say if thats your experience then I wouldn't question that but I don't think it's the norm even in todays climate....It all depends on how much you want to sell I suppose. Desparate financial times some times call the shots for some.

Spine on a Bap! Your a Crak Pot!!!!! CSL will never fall to that kinda Money! If anything years to come will appreciate as in last Months BMW car done a article and i think we have a Real legend on our hands that will hold a steady value! :thumbs:

I've just been offered a 04CSL for £24000 at a dealers with less than 40000 on the clock, FSH. BMW warranty till Aug 09 too and with all the right spec. It's just come in and has had 2 owners. Going up to see it either tomorrow or Friday

Sounds like the right car at a great price
Lets hope it is mint and you dont have a wasted journey :beer:

If mint snap it up I say....is that at a BMW dealer?

[Sock]

no its from an independent who's just got it in. i've spoken to another dealer that has a 2003 gray CSl 43000 on the clock for £25950. Hes already offered it me for £25000 as i have no trade in and hes willing to go fiurther on that offer....

I'm waiting for someone on M Torque who use to own the vehicle to tell me about it.

[Andyk]

Was going to say that was very cheap for a BMW dealer. With that miles and if in great condition they would still want closer to 30k for it.

It's interesting at the moment.. there is a real spread in prices some cars going sub £20k and yet others demanding neaer £30k.

If you've been offered that 04CSL at £24k and you haven't even seen it yet then there has to be more discount to come. I'd be gunning for £22k :smt029

Good luck.

I think sub £20k is a bit OTT tom!

Cheapest i can find on Autotrader UK wide search is £22,995. Next cheapest is £24,995 and that has more mileage than the cheaper one...

Really the cheapest one would be the one sold by that Saab dealership at £25,950, the fact it has a BMW warranty makes the extra worthwile IMO.

I wasn't speculating. If you read my post I was actually reporting my own experience of 'a week in the CSL market'.

Anyway I'm not that arsed, I only dipped my toe in to see what it was like out there.

After owning this car since new August 2003 it's not that easy to watch it drive away in someone else's ownership :-D

I might start touting me RS4 around in a bit :thumbs:

I know a car that traded for £19750 recently... sold by these guys... http://www.ronhalls.co.uk/

Besides Rob.. take that car at £22995, that's just his offer price so you know there's room in that.

Yep, the 19750 car was higher mileage but still a great car for the money.

BMW warranty can be put on any car with fBMWsh now so no real premium for that other than pro-rata for the remaining amount.
