am not finding it easy to sell my R300. some interest via ebay and pistonheads, caterham dealers aren't interested it seems, but I need to sell it due to a house purchase. has anyone got any inspiration on where to sell it ? Im not a member of blatchat as I haven't registered - it didn't seem to make much differene if i am selling it. thanks simon

super feedback, really appreciate it ! will re-word the advert. it is an R300 SV. from the calls i've had people really want SV's.

I had it triple checked by caterham factory before I bought it, its definately an R300.

maybe a stupid question, but how do i tell if its got roller barrels ? i had it serviced at fezzer garage as it was closer then driving to leicester and i was busy getting ready for Le Mans that week :-) if they can fix a ferrari enzo they can fix a flippin caterham ! well, you'd like to think so !

i think based on the spec, condition, colour, mileage and age you won't find a better value less than two year old caterham in the UK for sale anywhere...I know I've checked first ! i need to sell it, but i love it so much I am finding any which way i can to keep hold of it...i finally have the massive garage i always wanted...and its a shame to have to get rid..to pay for the massive garage !

the chassis number has RC not R3 in it. The factory have confirmed based on the chassis number and the original owner's name, its an R300 superlight. it has also references to R300 on the original order details. Its definately an SV model.

original asking was £24k which 6 months ago seemed fair...today is a different story...ended up selling for a lot less...there are some bargains to be had at the moment if you have the cash. i think the buyer of mine got a great deal.
