ben7 Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Reduced in price having spent £1,600 to rebuild the engine. Impending fatherhood means that my wonderful, beautiful car is up for sale. ☹️ ☹️ ☹️ This is a great car with practically every option fitted to it (saves on upgraditis!! ) Overview: 2000 V reg factory built 1800 K series Supersport Caterham Dry Sump System 6 Speed Ferrari Titanium paint K9 Carbon Front Wings RiF Carbon Aeroscreen plus spa mirrors Freestyle shocks & Springs (outboard) Slippy Diff Wide Track In more detail: Radtech radiator Samco hoses (blue and the whole kit not just the CC hoses) Verniers AP Racing Clutch AP 4 pot callipers & braided hoses 52mm Throttle Body Momo Steering Carbon Dash Carbon Sills Carbon rear wing protectors Tillet Seats with 5 point harnesses FIA roll bar Plumbed in fire extinguisher Windscreen Full weather gear Heater 25,000 miles The car has full Caterham service history, but this doesn’t even get close to the tlc it has had over the last 3 years. Wheels packages: Caterham 8 spoke anthracite with ACB10. Front are not legal, rears have loads of tread left SLR alloys 7.5x13 and 8.5x13 fitted with Michelin radial slicks Minators (black centre) 6x13 and 7x13 fitted with Avon wets Famous Car: This is the very car that that fat cockney guy span on channel 4’s Driven Extras: I will throw in a local corner weighting session for the new owner if they have a couple of hours when they pick the car up. I have about 16 litres of very expensive Silkolene oil as well which will need to go with the car. The Catch: No catch anymore, as the car has now been fixed by the Caterham agent *thumbup* The Price: I am looking for £12,800 with the supersport head. I also have a Hellier Performance ported, big valve head and an emerald up for grabs as well with about 500 miles on it (fitted in September 2005) for £1100.

Tyrone Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Ben, Does Pete have first dibs on all the wheels That's just plain greedy. I'm really keen on getting some black centered Minators, I was thinking of selling my silver ones to Mark Duffy. Did Dave Carter get in touch by the way?
