Which type - there are several variants?

[HustleRussell]

there are probably a dozen types and they aren't all interchangeable so you are going to need much more info.

Hi there how would I find out what size cage I require. Sorry to be vague but only acquired the car about 5 weeks ago. Much help appreciated

We need to figure out what sort of chassis you have, the year of the car for starters, plus is it a 'normal' Caterham 7 (S3) or is it the extra big 'SV'?

If the car was built in 2003 or before it might be a live axle which is different again? Telling us which engine it has might sort that one out?

Do you still want to be able to use the hood and windscreen with the cage?

If you can provide a link to the sale advert we'll be able to tell you...

Not a Caterham.

[Lofty2k]

The car was built in 1993 it has a 2ltr redtop out of the old cavalier.

[Lofty2k]

The cars not an original Caterham but the chassis has been changed in 2010

[HustleRussell]

The car in the photo doesn't have a Caterham chassis.

You will need to know who manufactured the chassis to find a roll cage, depending on whether there are any around you may have to have one made to fit.

P.S. Reg number is for a Robin Hood

[HustleRussell]

It doesn't look like a Westfield either to me. I think you might have better luck in the 'Kit Car' sub-forum where they might have a better chance of identifying your 7.

this car was NOT built in 1993!!!

the V5c is from 1993

this car is a rather "new" built GBS zero from ~ 2010

avoiding IVA test a V5c from a scrapped "old" Robin-Hood was used

this car is a Ringer.

Illegaly on the road and should be reported to DVLA and Vosa

I have a 2015 metric Caterham roadsport cage for sale - not sure if you'll make it fit your car but feel free to send me a message if interested.

Hello Jimmy7,
I have seen that you want to sell a rollcage from 2015.
I am seaching a rollcage for my 2010 caterham.
Please tell me the price for the Rollcage. Is it possible to send it to Germany? Did the Rollcage fit on the 2010er caterham?
Best regards
FRANK

Frank - I've tried to contact you via email but your account isnt set up to allow it.

The cage will fit a 2010 S3 Caterham as far as I know - both metric so I assume its a direct fit.

I'd be happy to ship if you cover all costs etc. Please get in touch to discuss further.
