I'm a Caterham virgin and I just popped my cherry...

After years and years of seeing C7's on the road, on the track .... having done a few Caterham days at Silverstone and chatted about them with friends..... I took the plunge..... I saw one and went for it. Im 6ft5 so needed the SV ..... It arrives next week. The wife is really really happy I have done it.

The technical bit (im not technical) .... Supersport, 125bhp, 2011 model ...... end of technical ability

So ..... what do I need to know?

Told you I wasn't technical .... yes lowered floor .... hence perfect combo for an overgrown boy from Wales.

Your telling me you can fit a 6 ft 5 guy in there?

I'd always immediately writen off anything like this. Infact my wife jokingly said she'd only leave me for someone who has a caterham...

I'm a mere 6ft 4... Telling me there's a chance I could actually fit a drive one of these. Amazing! Off to he classifieds.

She said the same thing to me and I said…. Oh wait ….

Do it! It’s cosy but comfortable fit (I’m not ummm bulky as others said would be a problem!)
