I have a little bit of a 1/18th model car collection going on, I've been after a Caterham model to join the ranks of late. Has anyone got one? If so where from and how much?

I thought I'd ask in here instead of the scale model section to appeal to the right people.

Dyushu?

The Tamiya Lotus 7 Series II plastic kit is 1/20.

I've been looking for one of these as well.
My dad has a red Roadsport 140 '03 and ideally I'd like one the same! wink
I've kept my eyes on eBay and a few other places, but it seems you can buy the older models, Lotus 7, JPE etc. or R500/R500 Evo. Obviously not enough of a market for a "normal" Caterham model frown

Yes, I have one. I got it from a shop (the name of which escapes me) in the Bluewater shopping centre in Kent , and if memory serves cost me £39.99 at the time (about 5 years ago). It's made by Kyosho, and is like this but the nose and wings are BRG instead of black:



A quick look on eBay shows there's a Kyosho JPE up for grabs:

There are also a couple made by Anson:

Eric, your mantle of infallibilty is slipping. The Tamiya Seven S2 is 1/24th scale. Must be because it's a Fridaysmile
