My current two..

[birdcage]

Having owned quite a few cars I set myself a budget to buy a car and told myself I would not go over it.

Time to be sensible. I didn't go over budget on the actual car itself. I just bought two.

One is currently hidden to avoid trouble and I am hoping there will be a good time to drop it into conversation soon.

The CSL is my third the one I now intend to keep and the 348 is a bit of a wildcard given what I have had before and it's poor reviews at the time.

The steering is great, gearbox lovely and noise with sports exhaust lovely. Hard to go too mad in terms of speed limits too even though it sounds like you are doing twice the speed.

M3 sporting the very best type of personal registration very apt

[Jimmy No Hands]

What a brilliant pair!

[magpie21]

Great choice, not sure which I prefer. Plate on the CSL is genius.

What a cracking pair of cars, the plate on the CSL is an act of brilliance

On the subject of the CSL, is my eyesight failing me or is this one of the few RHD without Xenon headlights?

The 348 has spent some time in Aberdeen too.

That number plate is brilliant, and your cars sure brilliant.
HUGE man points.
What do you do, how do you do I it and do you want an apprentice!?

[clarkmagpie]

I do love the 348. Seems they are getting better with age
Great pair!

Love the cars, but don't get the brilliance of the CSL plate. (Apart from it says CSL)

S54 engine...

[Evo]

The engine is called an S54 type, hence S54 CSL

[e46acs]

I miss my CSL

But thats not a bad choice to have to make every morning!

can you give us some feedback after you find that good time to drop it in the conversation

Both fantastic cars by the way, congrats

i have never warmed to the rear end of the 348 but the front is stunning

and the CSL will no doubt increase in value

you must own a petrol station and /or refinery to run these two

Thanks for comments everyone.

Well spotted no Xenons. An unnecessary weight addition or a must have option, depending on if you have them or not when selling!

Nice, I haven't seen many CSLs without the xenons, quite rare by all accounts
