So, Caterham South (the home of the marque and the place that gave the cars their name)will no longer be in Caterham, they're moving to Crawley, West Sussex.

That'll be a sad day! They're 2 miles down the road from me! frown

I would imagine costs, logistics and possible more space.

The land (which they don't own) on which their showroom was on was sold to build flats on.

Apparently there was nothing suitable locally.

At least there are better roads near Crawley though!

I thought this had already happened, was certainly spoken about some time ago, as already mentioned the land is valuable for building flats. There was only a small showroom there anyway, the cars are made near Dartford.
