If you are looking at this listing, doubtless you will know all about Caterham and their range of lightweight, exciting sports cars. But just in case you don’t….

Colin Chapman’s famous company sold the Lotus Seven from 1957 to 1972. It was sold in kit form or could be ordered factory-built for those less talented with the spanners.

After production ended, Caterham bought the rights to the design and still to this day make both kits and fully assembled cars. It should be said that the car has now been developed to the point that no part is the same as on the original Lotus.

Always a company striving to improve, Caterham has steadily produced more and more extreme versions, culminating in the addition of the ‘Superlight’ range in 1996.

Our seller purchased the car fifteen years ago from DPR Motorsport in Redhill, Surrey. For those who don’t know them, they not only run the leading Caterham Race Team, but they also offer a full range of specialist services, the aim being to help their customers derive the most from their Caterham ownership, for road, track or race. When purchased, our seller used the car on both road and track.

This vehicle is currently with the vendor in Chichester, West Sussex; if you would like more information or to arrange a viewing please get in touch with us directly.
