Hi all, I am looking into a buying a Caterham Seven, there is only so long one can go without scratching an itch wink
After many years of contemplating it I have decided that now is the time!

I am a lanky 6"3, so wondering what is the best option for me.

I know I can fit comfortably in an SV, having tried one, but as I would be buying second hand it seriously limits the options...

Do any of you use lowered floors and find they make a difference for taller people?
(I use a lowered seat rail on my S2000 and sitting only 20mm lower has changed the sitting position from very awkward to pretty acceptable for me)

Are there any tall owners out there, I would be interested in your experience.

Many thanks

Thanks guys, I think there is no way around it I will have to try an S3 with lowered floor. Too many variables with leg length, overall height, and personal preferences....
When I tried the SV it almost felt too roomy for me so I am hopeful the S3 might work for me
