Title: Anyone know of any 8.5 CS available / in showrooms
Post by: CS40 on 05 November 2024, 11:55
Hi all

Thinking of returning to the fold after much time away from the brand since my 2016 CS.
Being a bright spark, I have sold my G80 M3 (which I hated) with nothing lined up!

I need something by Xmas latest but asap really.

Looking for sunroof and DCC fairly flexible on the rest.

Drive the Deal have great discounts but are quoting March delivery.

Possibly a long shot but if anyone gets a whiff of one I’d appreciate the heads up!

Cheers

You might have seen it already, but there is a nice spec Limestone Grey GTI (sunroof, 19 inch alloys, DCC) at Apex Performance Cars in Huddersfield (search on Autotrader) but it is not a CS and they want £44k for it!

There are a couple of the VW sites.  One has the sunroof, but no DCC, but does have better alloys

This one is actually a CS

Not the spec you wanted though.

Probably a factory order outside of that

There was a Crystal ice blue clubsport in the showroom at listers VW Evesham a couple of weeks ago, they may still have it as I haven’t seen it advertised, I’m pretty sure it had a sunroof, don’t know about DCC, but it looked stunning, maybe worth giving them a call.

What was wrong with the M3?

Thanks I rang them today but it was last thing - awaiting a call back tomorrow
