Thanks to Martin Phipps I have discovered that my Seven was originally build at the end of 2004 with Academy specification and the Roadsport B upgrade. First registration was on 01.11.2004. Probably for competition in the season 2005.

Still looking for pictures of the original specification, Academy race cars, with following options:

- Academy 16 K Series (EU3) with uprated valve caps

- triple pass radiator

- full painted in Caterham yellow

- black pack

- black-silver KN Minator alloys with Avon CR500 tyres

​- rear ARB

- plumbed in fire extinguisher

JJF, Interested to note from your previous Blog that your car was raced by late Martin Kay.

To help you build the picture, in 2014/15 Martin Kay raced a Black & Green Caterham (Number 102) that was previously was raced by Dylan Stanley.  My Caterham now has the engine taken from this car.

So I guess Martin Kay must have raced your car in seasons prior to 2014 before buying Dylan Stanley's car?

Hope you had a safe trip home, great to meet you yesterday.

Hi Charles & Andrew,

I am still searching for the complete history. I have had contact with Tony Jaffe, who raced with my car for several years. He told me that he co-owned a number of race cars with a friend. The reason for selling the K Series was the replacement with a Sigma.

BTW, the chassis and engine are still matching numbers, with the MSA seals still on the engine.

On the internet are a couple of pictures of my car being used by Tony Jaffe. Some with headlights and windscreen, others without. As far as I know, in the beginning of the Graduates, windscreen, lights, ... were obligatory. Later on that changed.

Cheers

Yes, the Super classed removed lights and windscreen in about 2014.

I raced against that car many times (and probably beat it more often than not *blabla*)
