No way Jose.

My Busa has all the right bits on it & cost as much as a new R500 anyway...................... But its faster & rarer to boot!!!
...but is a homebrew and thus has a limited marekt compared to an official Caterham produced car...not that this takes anything away from it as a piece of engineering....

I didn't say it anything to that effect Rubystone.........However the car is built to a standard at least as good as a factory made car.

Most people will believe the R500 to be the ultimate incarnation of the Seven & factory built that is so. My car was built primarily for sprints & hillclimbs, for that purpose its type reigns supreme!

Anyone know any good Spitfires for sale?
Assuming you don't mean a Triumph, I am not sure you have got the hang of this Caterham lark yet!!
