toys Posted June 15, 2004 Author Share Posted June 15, 2004 This is my third Caterham in nine years - first was a 1.4 Supersport, then a 1.6 Superlight. The handling and responses of this car are astonishing - even compared to the SL. Forget your big power machines, low weight (400kg with cage) sequential shift and 11k rpm are where its at for track fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toys Posted June 28, 2004 Author Share Posted June 28, 2004 Currently the only imperfect part of the car are the wings which are stone chipped / crazed, so I have just ordered a new set and will be fitting them to the car shortly. (Will also apply Armorfend this time!) Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toys Posted July 26, 2004 Author Share Posted July 26, 2004 Thanks for all your interest guys. The car is now sold. After nine years of almost continuous Caterham ownership think it is time for a new project - a pure racer this time. Slightly newer design than the Seven, but still penned by the genius himself... Can you guess what it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Piper Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 It's a 23 I reckon - a number of people I know are looking at these - I can't remember the company name, but there's someone out there who makes superb replicas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
