About this car

The 3.0 CSL was BMW's lightweight homologation special, built to go touring-car racing, and the E9 is among the most sought-after BMWs of its era. This right-hand-drive car is a 1972 example with matching chassis and engine numbers, a combination the dealer describes as almost unheard of among surviving cars. It kept all of its original panels.

It has been in Sussex for much of its life and is believed to have been supplied new by the Ashdown Garage, now the Munich Legends base. In 2011 it went through a bare-shell restoration there, covering a full repaint, retrimmed seats, refurbished wood trim, new carpets and a full engine rebuild that retained the original components. A photographic record of the work comes with the car.

It is finished in Chamonix White with a black vinyl and Scheel seat interior, and runs gas Bilstein dampers with progressive-rate springs. The odometer shows 76,900 miles, there have been seven former keepers, and the manual car is offered on behalf of its latest owner, who bought it in 2024.
