Thanks Stephen. Yes I've done quite a few jobs since purchase and I'm pleased with how it's turned out..That said I'm still toying with selling as I still fancy something with 6 cylinders again, ( previously owned a Cayman S ). Not sure yet and hoping to try an Evora S at some point as I want to try one before doing anything as anything else is quite a different proposition to a fast 7.. I'd love both but only have the space for one toy..Blatter - time to return to the Freestyle fold!

Will see. Might still fit another track day in if I can stop being precious about the new paint!
Hope yours is going well.

Out with the 911 Turbo and in with my new toy, a 420R. I’m still fettling it at the moment: upgrading the rear lights to the new LED Caterham ones, along with LED front indicators, to be fitted by S&Cs next week. I fitted new harnesses recently and ceramic coated the wheels as well. The chassis has also had a decent coating of ACF50. I also got round to polishing the silencer last week. I was thinking of having the whole exhaust professionally polished but decided the the bronze look is great against the silver paintwork.

Thats a lovely one! congratulations!!
I'd been eyeing it up myself on the Caterham Silverstone website while getting itchy waiting for my build slot next Feb.
Cheers! I wasn’t even looking for a 420. I’d decided on a 360R after hiring one to test. I’d never driven a Caterham so thought I’d give one a go. Within the first 30 seconds I knew I had to have one in my life! I was waiting for a perfect spec 360 to appear but was getting impatient (and was told I’d have to wait over a year for a new one). In the end I decided to up my budget and go for this one. Only about 1.5k miles on the clock so couldn’t resist.

Hopefully picking up from S&Cs next week after they’ve fitted all the new LEDs. The standard bulbs were hopelessly underpowered for London traffic, especially the brake lights. Every journey I was waiting to be rear-ended any second!
Parcmotor Castellolí, 50kms. from Barcelona City, designed by Dani Pedrosa, Álex Crivillé, Carlos Checa and Toni Elías. Fun, but need some work.

S3 with Gen2 Hayabusa.
With 470bhp per tonne and a 6 speed sequential it’s faster and lighter and more agile than anything Caterham currently produce, barring a 620.
However, as this weighs 150kgs less than a 620 the acceleration, braking, turn-in and overall handling is mind-bending. It’s like driving an Exocet missile.
