    Caterham 303bhp The Toad

    in For Sale

    Posted

    Hi Doc

    Indeed it is a monster... and beautiful too!

    It is the CSR style rear set up - longer dedion and CSR driveshafts. It works very well.

    Selling because another very specific opportunity has come up - and I'm selling the car I never thought I would actually sell... although I haven't actually sold it yet... and I could still change my mind!!

    Cheers Steve

    Thanks for the comments Richard

    Yes, it is a mighty machine - the torque is astounding and that makes it really driveable.

    I thought I would add that I have decided to leave the paddle shift kit on the car, including the onboard compressor. It's not an intrusive set up but really useful in that it negates the need for air bottles and that paraphernalia. It makes the car much more track day/road use friendly. I will include the Sadev manual shift items for conversion if required in the future.

    I have a spare set of CXR wheels too that I will include for the purchaser to use - for track tyres or maybe wets if competing?

    Cheers Steve

    Okey dokey...

    a thought... my pal is coming along to Gurston next weekend - I could ask him to take rears home to Goostrey in Cheshire if that helps?

    cheers

    Hi

    I was told by BMTR that they are 2011 tyres, I'd have to check depth but it's good - I can check all four and let you know.

    I'm based near Warwick 5 minutes from J15 M40

    hope this helps

    Cheers Steve

    Hi - I have a set of Avon CR500 tyres in good condition.

    These were apparently used as wet track tyres - but rarely by the looks of it as the tread is good and edges still sharp on all four. They are used but sidewalls are good - not cracked or perished.

    Will sell as pairs or set of four;

    175/55/R13 X 2 £80.00

    205/55/R13 X 2 £80.00

    £150.00 the set.

    cheers Steve

    K7 7OAD – Caterham Seven – 2005 – £34,950.00 - Specification June 2017

    Outstanding Caterham – fully specified, with breathtaking performance.

    Beautifully presented in eye catching Porsche GT3 Green, ‘The Toad’ (K7 7OAD) is a special car.

    Briefly: 303bhp 2400 Duratec on SBD Throttle Bodies / 6-speed Sadev sequential gearbox / Freestyle inboard suspension / Quantum Shocks / Wide track rear / Edwards Motorsport exhaust and manifold / DTA S100 Pro ECU.

    This is a Series 3 car built and registered in 2005. It was thoroughly refurbished in 2010 – with a repainted, updated chassis and all new panels by Arch Motors – and then meticulously rebuilt.

    Since I purchased the car in 2014 I have progressively updated it. Early in 2015 I replaced the 2 litre Duratec and MBE ecu with a 2400cc Duratec and DTA ecu and Playskool paddle shift and then, towards the end of the 2015 season, I replaced the Quaife sequential box with the Sadev version as it’s lighter, stronger (and quieter in use!).

    The car has had a relatively easy life – prior to my purchase it was used only a few times and since then I have used it only for a handful of hillclimbs each season.

    I had it on the Northampton Motorsport Rolling Road in September 2016 – it was showing 303 bhp at the flywheel with loads of torque. Dyno printout available to view.

    It is currently awaiting conversion back to manual sequential shift and the fitment of a full size fuel tank (instead of the 8 litre ‘hillclimb’ tank currently fitted), so that it can be used as a flying road car or fierce trackday partner. Optionally, if the purchaser wishes to retain the steering wheel paddle shift / air operated option this can be arranged at additional cost.

    Full Details

    6-speed Sadev sequential gearbox – manual shift option Extra Cost Option: Playskool Paddle shift fitted with onboard Playskool compressor and air reservoir.

    K7 7OAD is available now and represents a great buy for an enthusiastic driver.

    As always, the sum of the parts, build and maintenance is significantly greater than the asking price.

    If you are seeking a head-turning, buttock-clenching monster that will take your breath away then look no further.

    Price: £34,950.00

    Hi Malcolm

    Not sure if this will fit my series 3 chassis. If it does I am interested.

    I'm car 91 competing at Loton Park this weekend ( are you anywhere near there? ).

    Cheers

    Nosecone S3

    in For Sale

    Posted

    Hi - wondered if anyone has a surplus S3 nosecone - fibreglass or carbon. Ideally black / green or a dark colour (!)

    In good / very good condition. I don't need a ratty repairable one as I've got one of those after kissing the Shelsley Walsh recticel just a little too hard... doh!

    I'm based in Warwick, can collect.

    Thanks Steve - mob: zero 7836 38447 three.
