Recieved my Moto-Lita Wheel today!. Folks were amazing to work with. shipping was only three days from UK. The car starts its assymbly next week! and should be complete by august 20th!

Congratulation. I was an earlier bidder, but not surprisingly, went out of budget quickly.

hi. I believe this will be a one off. If you’re interested I am happy to connect you with the folks helping me with this. robert

Happy to share I was able to solve the Smith guages as well this week. Ended up with: FET3-1B52-36C TACHO 8KRPM CATERHAM $254.44 FES3-1B52-38C 160MPH CATERHAM SMIT $346.13 FFC1-1B52-56C FUEL 52mm CATERHAM $97.46 FOP1-1B52-50C OIL P 52mm CATERHAM $ 97.46 FCT1-1B52-48C WATER 52mm CATERHAM $97.46 CAR CARRIAGE OUT $55.00 Folks at Caerbont Automotive Instruments Ltd. were helpful and share dteh guages are a driect plug and play swap. No additional wiring or compoents needed.

I called for a quote today to Geico specialty insurance. I was quoted ~$3,000 for the year, NJ. With a stated value of $120,000

After much back and forth with Moto-Lita and Caterham, i have successfuly ordered a Moto-Lita Mk4 10" flat bottom (with holes) wheel compatiable with the Momo Quick release hub. Due to the 10" diameter, theres only enough room for 2 holes, but im pretty excited to have this option. Thought id share should other folks have the same request. I had a Mk4 on my Europa and loved it. Next up, getting the motorsports guages from Smiths....

A few of us did scca and north east motor sports. Both at the meadowlands complex in 2006-2009. Between 4 and 12 Elise’s would come out. On Friday’s NEMS had a morning session where, for ~$120 you could do “training”. And we’d run as many laps as we could in ~3 or so hours. We’d easily get 16-20 runs. No course work. Just driving. we ended up skipping the traditional weekend events because none of us wanted to work the actual course. was a good group of guys.

Every year.

Yeah. I built a reputation for hitting the cones. there’s one picture. I’ll have to look for it, where I drifted my rear through a crescent of cones hitting each just right to kick them up and create a rooster tail of cones, liken to a go fast boat turning up the bay.

I loved my 71 S2. Did a full frame off restoration on it. thus far, still the best handling car I’ve ever owned/ driven. any my BWR S/C 05 Elise, which was a mixed bag ownership experience

Thanks for this. those turn pods keep coming up…

The roll bar is coming in heritage sage. But I plan to have it wrapped in beechwood leather. I was thinking to do the doors the same. not sure why, but Caterham’s leather source can’t do the the roll bar wrap in any color other than black. 😕 I think I’ll need to find a local shop for both. That’s when I started to notice I haven’t seen a single example of a door other than black.

Has anyone done up doors in colors other than black? in all the pictures I see online, I’ve only seen black.

Thank you.

do you know if the sending units are the same I figured the steering wheel is straight forward swap. But the gauges maybe a bit more involved given the wire looms and all will already be configured
