Hi enthusiasts, I hope you can help. I recently purchased a 2016 Caterham SV 420R from Caterham South. I have taken it out on 1 track day. There was a brake fluid leek. Unfortunately this has hit the paint work and caused some considerable damage. I took the car back to Caterham and they have told me it is common for fluid to leak out of the cap when the car is being driven hard and that there is no "Broken Part" that would lead to a valid warranty claim. This to me sounds unlikely. Do these caps leak brake fluid, and should I put up with this as an explanation, or is this a defect and I should be insisting that the warranty rectifies the damage to the paint work? Thanks in advance for your consideration. Mike.
