Finally picked up my Caterham 7 after a 7 month search....
As some may know I've been looking for a K series powered Roadsport, on a tight budget. It's taken 7 months to actually find one that was what I wanted. I missed out on three that were advertised, all three being sold within hours of their advert appearing. I wasn't prepared to buy from a Caterham dealer - most seem to add an extra £2-£3K - however I did buy one from a 'new dealer'.
So the car is a '55 Roadsport - ex Acadamy. one owner from new with a fresh respray. It's in great condition. It did have Tillet seats but the dealer gave me the option of leather so I went for the leather seats. has the anti cavitation oil tank, quick release momo, and wider doors. There's a few little jobs that need doing - carpet on the rear bulk head, stoneguards and finding a hood. I'm also considering adding some stripes too.

I've just added a full stripe set to my Seven. Give me a shout if you want details from where I bought mine.
Hi. Where did you get the stripes from. And did you fit them yourself.
