So, two years after moving into our current rental abode, our master plan has worked, and one of our neighbours have bought their first Caterham! Although both Steve and Felicity (now L7C members!) are both petrolheads, I reckon we can claim influence on their decision!

After a trip with us to Abbeville, where Steve got to drive on track, I think they were hooked – not just on the car, but on the friendly social scene that this little car [club] seems to generate as well.

So – after a few weeks looking, they bought this lovely R300 from a local Porsche Specialist – it had been the dealers own car…

Arrival back home, and the start of that grin!

First (ever!!) blat for Felicity – luckily, she loved it!

Cheers Dave! Yep, VW undergoing some pretty serious body work welding - I've cut out the entire front arches and am currently replacing them with 'original' ones cut from a similarly aged, but less rusty, van. Big job for a first attempt, but going ok so far! Need to get teh thing MOT'd in time for our 24hr MTB event in about 4 weeks - so no pressure....

Excellent! Thanks Angus for recording our Caterham story so far :))

Since getting the car I can’t think about anything else, work and jobs at home are suffering as a result and I still can’t get that grin off my face – it’s all your fault! - Steve
