Member Jonathan Kay Posted June 5, 2014 Member Share Posted June 5, 2014 For comparison purposes only, the first picture is of the original supplied 620R harnesses. I specifically wanted these as I really liked the buckle, and also wanted the font of the Caterham wording to be the same as that on the side of the car (some people call this OCD - I prefer to think of it as attention to detail :-)).If you want real attention to detail, I think you mean typeface rather than font... ;-) Looks great, have fun.

Martin J Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 It is exciting. Nearly seven years ago I was waiting for my home built one to be be checked over at Dartford & SVA'd. The novelty has never worn off & I still get the same buzz when driving it. The only difference as time has moved on is that I don't just drive it for the sake of it anymore. I have to be going somewhere, perhaps a blat, area meet etc or running a Daughter somewhere. On the 21st of this month I am off touring some of the fantastic roads in Germany with another caterham & a 911. We went to Austria last year & the Alpine roads were stunning. 🥰 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 As you can probably tell by my lack of replies... It arrived - been out in it for a fair few hours this evening. What can I say?

Guest Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 ooohhh yyeesss - no news is definitely good news! I've got some video to put on the blog, but there's quite a lot of wind noise in the first one, so have bought a go pro external microphone today and been out for another hour this evening testing that out... I'll put a post up once the video's are uploaded and I've done a write up. The car is blistering though - and still only running it in. As I write there are around 120 miles on it... Well happy Edited by - Roadracer1977 on 9 Jun 2014 20:10:17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
