     he factory modifications required to earn an M3 a CSL badge are legion. Alongside that engine and all the carbon fibre comes revised suspension, modified brakes, quicker steering and a paddle-operated gearbox capable of swapping one cog for another in 0.08sec or, to put it another way, three times faster than you. Inside, racing seats ensure your body can withstand 1.5G of lateral acceleration without depositing you on your passenger.

The CSL is one of the most hard-core supercars ever sold. Various buttons allow you to choose the speed of the gear change, sharpen the throttle response, disable the stability control or programme it for the race track. Like many things that are bad for you, the CSL is addictive — it possesses a focus that, of its ilk, only Porsche’s more expensive GT3 would recognise. Its non-negotiable demand for your undivided attention can make every departure an occasion, every journey an adventure, every arrival an event. It’s also rare, beautiful and FANTASTICALLY engineered.

This CSL has been part of a collection of cars for the last 9 years and has had little use. Stored alongside his BMW M635 CSI, Porsche 993 Carrera, BMW 1M and race cars. The car remains utterly standard except for the installation of AP front and rear brakes.  The Car features a full BMW service history from new with supporting invoices and documents going back to only 13,000 miles. In 2015 the boot floor was reinforced, eliminating concern of this Achilles heel.
