Well spotted that man!
Plus the bonnet (hood) is incorrect it should just have a stay, not the hinged bonnet support.
and to quote for the Ebay ad.....
Up for bid is a really nice BMW 3.0 CSI that has been cloned into a true CSL......
unquote.
Its the the use of the word true that gets me worried. I have no problem converting a car from one spec to another, but if you expect a large amount of cash for a car you would expect it to be done "right"

Chopping out the VIN number is "well dodgy". If such a car came up for sale in the UK I would walk away, concluding that it has

a... Been nicked
b... cloned
c... used to "create" another car
d... It would be very difficult to register and would creat a lot of interest from the local police :shock:
