SOLD - 1991 Caterham Super 7 1600GT Factory Built

[George Tait]

I bought this factory built 1991 Caterham 7 over three years ago and the only change I have made to the original factory specification is the addition of a FIA roll bar, which was fitted by Caterham Midlands. As far as I am aware the car has never been used on the track but it has been used regularly on the road including 3 trips to Le Mans and has always been very reliable. The car is in excellent condition overall and comes with service details, MOT’s etc from previous owners right up to the recent full service and check over performed by Chris at The Seven Workshop.

 

It is becoming increasingly rare to find an unmodified car such as this and I sell it with some reluctance, but I have decided to buy an early Lotus Europa and there is no room in the garage for two cars.

Mark,

 

Thanks, been away for a week and still catching up! I've had a number of enquiries about the car particularly from abroad (France and Norway). Caterham cars, and Rosey (who looks after archives/records)in particular have been extremely helpful in verifying original factory build details and providing supporting documentation etc. Can't recommend them highly enough.

Car is now sold and was collected by an extremely pleasant chap and his friend who flew over from Paris this afternoon. Initially surprised at the amount of interest shown from prospective buyers abroad, since found out it is one of the easier models to import/register particularly in France.

 

Have to say the car looked magnificent as its new owner set off for Folkestone. If the Europa gives me half as much pleasure as the Caterham I'll be a happy man.

 

George
