Title: New Retro Caterham Launch
Post by: Wizzo on April 11, 2020, 10:39:56 AM
Caterham Cars has launched its latest retro-inspired model – the Super Seven 1600 – after the enormous success of previous heritage cars.

With prices starting at £33,495, for a car in component form, the 135bhp, five-speed Super Seven 1600 fits perfectly into Caterham’s existing heritage line of products as a permanent addition.

Inspired by the craftsmanship of the original Super Seven and the early cars created under the historic Caterham badge, the new Super Seven features a raft of retro details and styling cues. These include the classic flared front wings, retro-inspired 14” alloy wheels, a spare wheel and carrier harking back to the touring Sevens of old, and a choice of Seven heritage paint finishes.

In the interior, the retro experience continues, with a timelessly elegant wooden-rimmed steering wheel and classically tailored leather upholstery.

A truly beautiful car. I know the cycle fenders are more practical but I've always love the looks of the long, sweeping flairs.

Can a KAR 120C number plate be ordered with it?   ;)

The flared wings were removed on the faster Caterham's because at speed the front of the car would take off!  :swoon:
