Taiga Green 2nd Series Batmobile.

These had a list price of nearly 9 Grand in 74.

Two fine examples, notice lack of 3.0 csl logo on stripes of early car as well as lak of scheel headrests. I think that car was polaris or golf.

Nice Taiga Green car with the larger 15 inch Alpina wheels.

Somewhere, in a pile of old '70's BMW bulletins I have the info on the driveback where UK dealers who ordered one could drive the car back to the UK. I'll have to look for it.
I had an Inka orange one that was such a car, one of Park Lane's iirc, 1972on the 'L'.

That's the one 4 star classics had up for sale for ages isn't it. £130k or so ? I stared at it A LOT.

Been "sold" now, although whether that means someone's bought it or it's been punted on to another dealer to try their luck with remains to be seen..

what would you say is the modern day equivalent to the Batmobile? Its looks are so outrageous that i cannot think of anything in its class

Re that Stunning Taiga Green Bat , yes it has been sold , back to America again !

And No, there simply is Nothing modern that comes remotely close, to a Bat CSL.......

Stunning in Ceylon Gold, this car disapeared ( we think to OZ ? ) many years ago.

Arguably One of the most iconic images ever..........

This Polaris one is hopefully now being restored

The late Bill Body Editor of the once great Motor Sport magazine and Michael Tee his production manager did an epic Ten Capitals blast in November 1972 in this Golf Yellow CSL. They drove this car very hard, but it never missed a beat.
