Ebay

[Matt21]

BMW Southampton have paid in a way but not for the bodywork because they are saying the rust was already there before they took procession of the car.

They paid for new brake discs,calipers and pads front and rear and new suspension on the rear ,also a new battery.because the car was sat in one position for several months.

Buggers!

Can't you claim on the 12 year anti corrosion warranty. Mine goes in next week for a rear wheel arch

[mattCSLnut]

Surely BMW Southampton should be paying or at least contributing towards the damage whilst in their care?

Exactly :beer:

Hi I could but the garage that doing all the other work doesn't want their work tampered with by BMW.

Most CSL's would have the 6 year anti-corrosion warranty, only vehicles that left the factory (or registered not sure which) after 1st of January 2004 come with a 12 year anti corrosion warranty.

I found this out the hard way.

I think it's good that you have come on here to say hello.

Good luck with the sale.

Ditto :beer: also worth considering subscribing to CSLR properly via the Donate button and advertising your CSL on here.
Recently, good CSLs have been selling within a few weeks... sometimes within a few days on here :smokin:

Good man :thumbs: and welcome aboard :beer:
BTW... once your Cecil is all done "spick & span", I'd advertise it @ £39,995 and hold out for the right new owner to come along if you're not in a desperate hurry to sell. The CSL is a sellers market which has moved on up recently (and slowly but surely keeps on rising) in favour of the sellers. By the time your car has had it's new paint, wheel re-furb and bits of interior all re done it'll be virtually like new :thumbs: (so long as the standard of the repairs is high) Also lets not forget all the recent BMW Warranty work (engine included) will have a transferable remainder of the 24 months warranty from the date of instalation. A real bonus for the new owner :smokin:

Yes I could advertise at that figure but with all the criticism that I have received on this forum and also 'Cutters' do you think that figure would be the right figure.

IMHO now that you've rightly decided to do this whole thing properly by investing that little bit extra time & £££ to make your CSL the excellent car it always deserved to be (and possibly once was) ... so long as all the remedial work you're now having done to it is of a very high standard, I'd consider this moment the equivalent of a re-set button.
Forget those less than perfect eBay adverts don't waste any more of your time or money re advertising the CSL there. Re writte the PH Ad explaining clearly exactly what you're now doing and once the CSL is all sorted get some proper pix and advertise it on CSLR :thumbs:

Thanks for you kind words and I will keep you posted on the progress.

Agree with Matt

If your splitters need re furbing contact Mark on here
Shimmy also has the paint code if your interior trim needs attention :thumbs:

Hi thanks for the heads up, I have purchased brand new carbon splitters.

And the chap who's doing the work used to work for BMW.

My thoughts exactly. Good move coming here, being known will help rather than being a random ebay car. I would also sell it just on CSLR, there's that few cars out there, anyone serious will know where to look.
