    Then when you have done that, you can all come to my Christmas Party.. there's no ice cream but we have an all day open pit lane at Cadwell Park for just £69, Friday 11th December - just 50 cars to keep it sweet! - I'll say it again £69!!

    Good luck with the last day of 2009 but the CSL will be tucked up in bed for the winter

    Wow, that is cheap. I'm getting hammered on mine from Kwik Fit. Mainly because they haven't taken into account any real no claims bonus (was done while in Spain, nearly 10 years, all gone) so starting from fresh. And it's outside until I move house in a few months so probably doesn't help.

    Can you change insurer during a policy? (I'm paying monthly)
    Why Kwik Fit ? If you're paying monthly than it makes it easier to stop one policy and start a fresh with another :thumbs:

    GlenDog (Rob) recommended " Competition Car Insurance" , I rung for a quote and was amazed :thumbs: at what they quoted me, so mush that I took it up almost straight away as they were the cheapest by far ( £505 fully comp with £500 total excess and include 4 Track Days/year coverage, one of which can be FIA approved European one like Spa :thumbs: ) It's a 5000 mile per year limit (which can easily be extended) for a garaged CSL in a good Cambridge post code. Give them a call on: 0115 9415255 and say they were recommended by other CSL owners on this forum. It also helps if you're a member of a car club (not necessarily a BMW one either) and have a clean license :whistle:

    I've decided not to do a track day until next year now. Can't trust the weather and right now don't want to track it until I can get track day insurance sorted for a reasonable amount. I can't afford to replace my car completely if I stack it, so going to wait I reckon (anyone use track day insurance here?)

    Having owned 3 evos and now the csl, I was much more confident in the csl, you can feel what it is actually doing, rather than numbness in the evo.:thumbs: And I was just as fast in the wet as my mate in his 500bhp evo both running a048, he can peddle as well

    Like you say though, good price for all day open pit.
    Yes, it is very well priced. I'll be nice to have a bit of a CSL invasion (come on SIEN) :thumbs: on this BMW only day :hahaha: there is enough of us down here in the "Sauff" :hahaha: Might end up being a reasonably quiet day to enjoy the track to ourselves :whistle:
