Outdoor Carcoon Size 3 large 

Just over 1 year old and only used for a few months while moving house.

Great condition 

Paid £560 new , looking for £350 collected (that way i can inflate it and let the new owner have a good look round)

Sold , sad to see it go , many fun miles ahead for the new owner. 

While we've had good weather this weekend I've taken some nice up to date photos , after going for a blat over the moors of course, hope these do the car justice. 

Price Dropped to £19,250 which is a great buy for a 7 of this spec. 

Price dropped to £19,995

Thanks for the help guys , pics now uploaded and as Tazio said search the reg plate and there’s lots more info on the full spec as well as the price I paid for the car. 

*SOLD*

Chris , i wouldn't mind these too if that`s ok.

Will make a donation to the clubs charity as well as the postage

Yes please if it's still available ?

Cheers Mike

Afternoon Everyone

All the best

175 all round might be the happy compromise that I'm after , just out of interest what your 7 like on the ordinary tyres, I take it the slightest prod of the throttle had you snaking down the road ? .

After doing the caterham drift day in their sigmas and watching some auto test at a local club it made me realise how grippy my car actually is , not that that's a bad thing I suppose.

Mike

Thanks for the replies , will look in to the geo adjustments .

I take it I’ve fallen for the daft question daft answer on the rim width  6” looks like it will do me fine if I go down the 322 route . 

I’m hoping to get a progressive set up rather than something snappy. 

Found the error , i had put the thumbs up icon from the I phone , as soon as I removed this the new post worked fine .

Afternoon Everyone 

Just after a bit of advice in making my 7 feel more lively on the rear at lower speeds, probably going against the grain with question but anyhow.

My current set up is a R400D with titan LSD on 175/55/R13 cr500 front , 205/55/R13 cr500 rear . 

Whats people's opinion on switching out the rears to CR322s ? Daft question but what rim width should I be looking for on this tyre. 

Lastly out of interest , anyone know the setup used on the caterham drift days ? 

My car truthfully gets a really easy life , never tracked etc.. I just miss the tail happy happiness that I had in my previous cars.

thanks in advance for any advice

Mike

I keep getting the unexpected error page when trying to post in the technical section.

Hi guys , thanks for the heads up , I'd seen the car come up for sale but it was out of my league price wise . Looks a nice motor though . It's got me thinking I might have to widen my search if nothing crops up in the near future.

Wanted 

HPC Vauxhall engined caterham 7 1996 onwards with the revised chassis.

if anyone knows of one for sale please let me know 

regards

Michael 

Evening 

I'm researching in to the Vauxhall engined HPC caterhams and have seen a couple of posts stating that the chassis changed design in 1996 (newer type suspension/ seats/ tunnel mounted handbrake)

Does anyone know if these chassis changes are easily retrofitted or made a massive improvement to a pre 1996 chassis ? 

Just want to know if I'm best waiting for a 1996 onwards if I was to buy this type of 7
