After a few weeks of research and deliberation I put a deposit down on my first Caterham today. A 2004 Tracksport 30th Anniversary special. One of only 2 I understand?
Callum at Sevens and Classics sent me over some pictures before it was advertised and just had to go and see it. I was pretty much sold when I saw it in the flesh and it drove beautifully.
Great buying experience from these guys and Callum showed a lot more enthusiasm and interest in me than Caterham dare I say it!
Very much looking forward to picking it up in a week or so and getting to a few local meets!

Tracksport was for track only, SV30 was its road going equivalent, Tracksport had a 140bhp 1.8 and SV30 a 120bhp 1.6

I had a change of heart in the end, feeling the Tracksport might be a little too extreme for my predominantly road use and went for this Roadsport instead which I picked up on Saturday.
1.8 Supersport engine
6-speed
Lotus Azure blue
12,000 miles
First impressions are it's fantastic, although a busy week at work has meant I've only really driven it the 30 miles home from Brands Hatch. Seems to have plenty of power for now, makes a great noise and the fairly small tyres allow for lots of safe fun!
Roll on Saturday morning and some sunshine!

Fantastic condition for an X reg! But seeing from the tread pattern you have ZV1's fitted which are probably very old by now, from my own experience with these tyres which were around a decade old and original to my 2002 car you may be wise to change them. In the end mine had absolutely no grip, dry or wet.
