**SOLD** Due to an impending house purchase opportunity which I cannot pass up, my Caterham Seven is very regretfully up for sale. I had intended to keep it indefinitely and as such it has been cherished and upgraded to where it is today with a view to long term ownership. It has only been driven in the wet a handful of times during my 4 years of ownership and I have only done 1 trackday. The car has been fastidiously maintained and loved and I will be deeply saddened to see it go. I am the 3rd owner and the odometer shows just over 39k miles. The car was upgraded from its original 1.6 Superlight specification by Caterham in 2004 with the Caterham Supersport R conversion which made it identical to the R300 with a 1.8K Series on Roller Barrel Throotle Bodies. During my ownership I upgraded the engine further with Omega Forged Pistons and the Easiclean External Tank Dry Sump System. Overall, it is in very good overall physical condition and absolutely perfect mechanical condition. It has mainly been used for Sunday morning runs out during the Summer and is SORN’d over the winter. The car benefited from a major refresh last winter which took 6 months and covered pretty much every aspect of the car. The front and rear suspension were refreshed by Bilstein, powerflex bushes fitted and everything repowdercoated. The Dry Sump system was fitted and the 6 Speed gearbox refreshed by Phil at Road and Race. The chassis bars and grot traps were cleaned and repainted were necessary and the uprated front hubs fitted. Practically all the nuts and bolts were changed and hundreds of minor parts fitted with new ones. If you search for Caterham Superlight 157 you will see the PH thread which details all the work done.

With the upgraded bottom end it would make an excellent prospect for a more powerful unit with just the head work to be done. The car has a full history with annual servicing which includes and oil change (Fuchs Supersynth 5w40and OEM filter) and I always carry out a detailed inspection and torque check all the nuts and bolts. I also clean underneath, remove the wheels and clean everything. In addition, I have every single invoice from the original sales paperwork, right to the present day. The MOT expires 17 September 2015. If you are interested please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I am looking for £19,750. Please note the aeroscreen is not included in the sale, the windscreen and full doors are now back on the car.
