Is the Caterham actually worth the premium over the Westfields / Tigers etc. if so why so?

Whats the minimum you need to spend on a decent Caterham?

Thankyou so far, I will be looking for something that is very usuable on B Road hoons and trackdays.

As I am saving and don't have a great income hearing I could find one for £7.5K is fantastic I was expecting to have to save around £10K.

Not really that sure what I'm after at this moment in time, so will speak to some seven type car owners locally. smile

I'd forgot all about noise restrictions, well I hadn't ... just not actually thought about it, thanks for bringing it up. I presume most owners would know what db their car was running at or at least have an idea if it'll get by the noise restriction?

No idea really how many track days I'll be doing, when I can afford them really though being a Motorsport student from September, perhaps we'll get to know people in high places winkhehe (I hope!!)

Just read the latest posts smile Must say I am very impressed to find that the Caterham hood doesn't leak and that they can (as proved by someone) be used everyday! To be honest thats put a while new light on it for me!

No way would I find a Caterham cramped as I'm only a 5'2" girl rofl so no doubt it would be plenty big enough, for little me... biggrin
