Ilie Nastase promoting BMW

1. PYV905L is not one I have come across during our time keeping records.
2. It is not held on the DVLA website for that registration number so, in theory does not exist in the UK.
3. With an ”L” registration number it was produced in the bracket 1 August 72 to 31 July 73. Nastase was at his peak in 1973.
4. It has chrome wheel arches and the CSL black stripes – not fitted to a CSi
5. It has Alpina wheels which were standard fit on the 1972-3 CSL BUT optional on the Phase 1 CSi.
6. My feeling is that it is a CSL and having Nastase draped over the bonnet made it a dealer car for sale BUT used for this PR picture. It has chrome wing grilles and windscreen wipers but a black radiator centre grille which shows it was a later production VIN
