An original UK car produced in November 1972 and first registered in February 1973 as attested by BMW UK this is a spectacular example of the iconic 3.0 CSL. This is a restored example expertly done to original specification retaining all of the correct aluminium panels, Scheel seats with headrests to front seats (retrimmed), correct 14'' wheels (refurbished) with new tyres, original carpets and all of the City Pack specification options as supplied to the 500 UK supplied cars. Model History: Built as a homologation special built from the E9 CS, a grand touring car designed to replace the 2000 C and 2000 SC. The new E9 features a revised and lighter chassis over the old car and an enlarged engine which gained two extra cylinders to create one of the most famous lineage engines, the BMW straight 6. In May 1972 BMW released the CSL to homologate the E9 for racing in the European Touring Car Championship. The L in CSL standard for leicht or light represents the drastic weight saving BMW undertook such as using thinner steel for the body panels, deleted trim and soundproofing, aluminium doors bonnet, boot lid and perspex side windows. This was the first M car to be made by BMWs famed M or Motorsport division, although, it never carried the famed M badge.
