2008 CATERHAM SEVEN (S3)

Caterham 7 Sigma 1600cc Super Sport 2008 with Meteor Motorsport IRS rear suspension upgrade

Caterham Super Sport IRS (Independent Rear Suspension)

A rare opportunity to purchase a Meteor Motorsport IRS Caterham 7

The car is fitted with their unique independent rear suspension system replacing the standard De Dion. All the benefits of the CSR chassis compliance yet retaining the very nimble narrow chassis of the S3.

This was Meteor Motorsports development car for the IRS kit and as such was built to a very high spec and standard. It also carries a unique chassis No. 1 dash plaque.

A complete chassis refurbishment including reskin and re powder coated at Arch Motors. It was completed in 2022 when it was then fitted with the IRS kit by Meteor along with many new parts and extras. The car rides on Meteors own CORE 1-way adjustable dampers and has been setup for fast road use.

The IRS installation retains all standard brakes, dampers and drive shafts and is therefore reversible if ever wanted. Once you drive this car and experience the benefits of the system you won’t ever want to return to a standard de Dion chassis.

Please add up the cost of all the extras and add them to the base price of a comparable Supersport and you will see how much of a bargain this car represents.
