I was going to snap it up until I noticed there were no red handled screwdrivers....Oh well :lol:
God I love that colour, every time I see a Ceylon coupe I get very jealous
This is the car from where Andi derived his strut brace.

but, its a matching Gold Colour one....
+ 1. Probably the only thing that would make me leave the Great White
Kind of nice to see an E9 where the wiper motor/linkage isn't covered with overspray by a flipper.

Did Ceylon originally have green leather rear seats ?
BTW, the asking price is $223,435 USD

Without knowing the vin# I'm speculating but I'm guessing this is a first run CSi L in what appears to be City Pack config with added bat bling?
No hood pins, power windows up front and in back, tool kit, ect... also, check out the adjustable headrests?
Regardless, love the color and the car.
I remember calling europe on this very car years ago. They wanted 90,000 euros back then. I just missed it after waiting a week or so. I then bought my ceylon csl at London RM auction. It's a beautiful car.
Is I recall you also have that incredible Ceylon "garage find" survivor. Very beautiful!!
Color reminds me of the Phoenix Yellow paint available on the later BMW M3 cars.
Ceylon...
I remember Ceylon, its got a lil Elvis in it. Great color ;-)
At some point, a PO painted mine Ceylon from factory Polaris, and now its "something completely different". ;-)
There is a Bav in my area rotting in the sun that is Ceylon over tan...looks all there.
A sun baked, tired old ceylon car is certainly good 'auto camo', the color almost becomes invisible in the wild.

Hi Stan
Lets hope this is not the Ceylon one that has the same chassis number as Jimmy Bakers car. That particular car, has been for sale in Europe for many years.
ccr2002...what a small world
I was the underbidder on that car at RM a few years ago, it was a really great car.........congratulations to you.....I remember it had great provenance and something about a nightclub owner at one stage and then a songwriter or something - apologies if my old grey matter remembers incorrectly.
Did you keep the seats?
Love the car and the color, I hope you have a lot of fun with it.
