Yorick Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 More likely to get an answer on TechTalk, I hope: I'm about to collect a very nice used RHD Caterham - 1,6 Rover K Supersprint - 28000 miles - Oct.1997 - ... Looks like a very well sorted car. Special things to check, weakspots, ... before handing over the money ? Any checklist on the web ? What are the most important TADTS ? Thanks, Yorick.

Paul McKenzie Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 Yorick, You absolutely must go there with a Caterham owner who knows what to look for, any general 'expert' will miss lots of things which we owners know to look for. I would suggest you get help from Stijn Luyck in Brussels, or some other Caterham owner. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorick Posted August 4, 2003 Author Share Posted August 4, 2003 OK, anyone wanting to have a look at a Caterham in Horndean (East Hampshire) this Thursday 7th at 2pm ? I'm like 99% sure the car is OK. But some peace of mind would be appreciated. I'll buy you lunch ... Yorick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorick Posted August 5, 2003 Author Share Posted August 5, 2003 Thanks Paul. I'll do my best on my own. Mainly it's a reduced-to-the-max Elise, and that one I know pretty well. I'll keep you all posted. Cheers, Y. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikes Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 Yorick, I cannot claim to be any sort of expert but I have had a 1989 1700 crossflow flow for a few years so at least I know what some of the bits are supposed to look like! I am on holiday this week so if you still want someone to give a second opinion let me know, I can get to Horndean pretty easily. As I am not at work !! I probably won't check this again until tonight but leave a message and/or email me. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorick Posted August 5, 2003 Author Share Posted August 5, 2003 Mike, I'm trying to convince a friend that's a racing car mechanic and knows a little about Caterhams to join me on Thursday. If I won't succeed I'll be glad to take your offer. Could you maybe mail me your phone-number ? Thanks in advance. Y. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
