I have heard of only one or possibly two in my extensive time of MTorque/M3Torque and CSLRegister. How many are left now is anyones guess but I cannot imagine many were specified without these options. The one that sticks in my mind also had the 'normal' halogen lights ie no xenons.

Quite a few don't have Pdc, some don't have xenon and a handful of the 422 don't have a/c. I'd guess at 25-50

One or two have had a/c post fitted to a fashion

I believe all the options were zero cost when the car was new so I'm sure it was hard not to tick them when buying.

A/C was zero cost but lots of the other options were extra, such as Xenons, PDC, Rain Sensor, CD

Prob makes F all difference in the CSL...

If you want some comfort, its worth it...

If you're part of the Nomex undercracker crew, buy a Radical...

well it'd negate 16.5% of the weight saving that you're paying all that premium for! (assuming 15kg a/c)

Because the cars are great all rounders.
Fancy a euro trip to Tuscany in August without A/C? No ta.

i owned one without air con and it was a nightmare in summer. As there is not much between you and the engine it can get a little hot in the cab. If I was to buy another CSL I would get one with Air con.

Agreed , no radio, no air con in my old one and not good in summer.
