Well would you??

http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1580610.htm

Have had four M3's incl two E46 SMG's but we have a Caterham hire business now and sold my cars to buy the Caterhams. It's being going well and need to get back into a nice day to day car but can't run to £25k yet.

Had a catD HondaS2000 years ago and it was fine and fab.

Have chased the garage for history and inspection reports but thinking of taking a punt at this money.

Cheers

Scott

I want one too, but again can't stretch to £25K, but they do, imo, seem to be dropping slowly.
I would not touch this one myself, how bad was it?
Just by looking at the pics, it has the wrong front bumper, and the "csl" badge is in the wrong place on the boot, being picky i know.......but I would want one that is straight,

looking at the cs now, not csl i know, but close.....

WOULDNT TOUCH IT

Love these styles of ads....when the fact it is Cat C is squeezed into the landscape of a poorly worded / constructed advert hoping not to shout too loudly...

As Marlow 11 said - non-original bumper, few other bits n pieces.

Wait until you can go 4-5K more and get a sorted one which might be a little more leggy, but straight.

For £18K, go regular M3....you should get a stunner for that.

Post this on www.cslregister.com - there may be some folks on there that know the history....

Must have been quite bad to write off a car that could normally be worth £25k

exactly ! Value at that mileage if straight would be more than 30K

Think you're all right. Will hang in there and bide my time.

Dropped them an email but no response.

Thanks for the input.

Cheers

Scott.

And don't forget how much these would have been worth 3 or 4 years ago (if it wasn't written off recently), it looks like it must have had a hard hit and by the looks of the rebuild it wasn't a moneys no object rebuild!

Stay away

It has been for sale, for ever. Don't touch it, a proper CSL front bumper / airdam is close to £3K
