That appears to be a Freestyle car. I have a Freestyle car, and it was supplied with the same silencer and primaries (or very similar), but a 4-1 collector. I have been told that mine was manufactured by Cheeseman, but don't know for sure. I will follow this thread with interest.

I don't think so. That's a Caterham with a Sigma. Has a Caterham badge and Caterham harnesses for starters. Rear wings don't look right for a Westie.

Agree that's a 4-2-1 Powerspeed.

Sigma and Duratec powered cars have the exhaust on the right hand side....

Gotta agree with Arnie the exhaust is on the wrong side

One reason why I wouldn't buy a modern Caterham!

Nonsense - just move to a LHD car country, where the exhaust will be opposite the driver, and all is well again. smile

BBL-Sean, Yes it's a Freestyle car, do you know if yours has an internal cat fitted.

Ooh they tripped and fell over that one.....;-)

BBL-Sean. The advantage of seating the driver Septic Side is that if you park in front of a large mirror you at least look to be driving a Caterham from your position.

Doesn't matter if it is LHD or RHD, it will be the wrong side somewhere. Only solution is to get a Macca F1! wink

I don't believe it does, but that comment is a guess based solely on the weight distribution; I have to say that I have never looked inside.
...and I have to agree that it is a great looking car. wavey

For a steering wheel there is no wrong side. There is only a correct side. And that is the British side.

Darumvej - Sorry, but unsure now about the source of your exhaust. I believe my primaries were made by Cheeseman based on this thread on BC, but still don't know anything about the manufacturer of the silencer. The exhaust system I have has primaries that align the straight collector and silencer to run parallel to the front of the chassis, where most others that I have seen - admittedly not many - run parallel to the wheels. Your primaries appear to set your straight collector and silencer running parallel with the wheels. Our silencers appear to be from the same manufacturer, but the primaries and collector not so much.

I am still interested in the source of the silencer, so if you find out, I would appreciate it if you would please let me know.
