I'm very reluctantly putting my gorgeously optioned CSR 260 (CSR 260 No. 72) back to the market. First off, the reason: A devastating left hand injury in 2019 has fundamentally and permanently disabled my left hand, made quite scarily evident towards the end of the drive home from Le Mans 2023. A combination of cramping and loss of feeling makes any kind of high level gear changes or dashboard switch management too sketchy for confident, brisk driving. It's not the car, it's me. The car is simply wonderful. 13800 miles. So an average of just over 800 miles per year. A low mileage car. Every consideration has gone into the thoughtful options and upgrades in the engine bay. The 'binary' roller-barrel throttle bodies replaced by equally capable, but far more throttle-sensitive Raceline butterfly throttle bodies/injection/induction, with full ECU dyno'd remap. Fully overhauled/upgraded oil/water/cooling plumbing and systems. This car is almost impossible to overheat when driven - the cooling systems are awesome. Custom 35-click Nitron suspension system/dampers on all corners, so more than 3 times the adjustability of the latest Caterham 420 Cup, with a load more power. Custom BTB 4/2/1 CSR exhaust system from headers out (£2800) installed in 2011 by BTB exhausts, repacked in 2019 by Cosworth specialists HWR Motorsport, at the same time as the full Cosworth Racing Duratec 2.3 engine service/rebuild, at 11,000 miles (£2475). This is an awesomely cared for car, with some delightful custom cockpit diamond-stitched livery, and an extremely well cared for/managed engine. Full screen/door/half-roof weather gear along with wipers all brand new and boxed (£1500), so if you want to drive in a more comfortable environment, it's there with a few spanners. I've shed more tears over selling treasured guitars that I've owned since the 1970's because of the same hand injury, and know that this car doesn't deserve the same cache of emotional/sentimental connection, but it is no longer a car I feel I can enjoy to its full potential. Wonderfully prepared by Callum's team at Turn 7 prior to my purchase in April 2022, so every nut and bolt front to back, and full engine pressure testing and all oil/fluids renewed. Needs to find a new home/gifted driver, to see it through its next generation of ownership. I'm looking for £45K, which may be a little ambitious, but is certainly towards the lower end of some of the CSR 260 market prices. I'm gutted, but someone out there will have a dream come true.
