Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 2003 BMW M3 CSL, one of only 422 RHD models in the UK, features a reshelled chassis after a 2010 track incident but remains HPI clear. Enhanced with nearly £15,000 in upgrades, including Simpson Motorsport enhancements, Recaro seats, and a roll cage, it's track-ready and mechanically sound despite 94,086 miles.
