2007 CSR 260 for sale

2007 Caterham CSR 260

Although its killing me to do this I'm putting up my CSR for sale. I have a new 9 month old daughter and it has certainly changed the priorities in my life. Anyway, this is the same car that was sold by Park Place Motors in Bellevue, Wa and is this thread.

The car has a few more thousand miles on it now 15,000 but just as it was sold to me it has never been to the track (although I dearly wanted to take it to MidOhio). I just installed new tires on the front and they have less than 300 miles on them and the rears have been on for 1 year about about 1500 miles and all of them in great shape. I painted the 7 on the front red which is the only change i've made to the car. I recently purchased 6 point harnesses with the thought of going to the track but I haven't installed them yet.

 

The CSR has the standard dash as the pictures below show and is RHD. This is bad for getting food at a drive though but great for being able to get parts and upgrade to any future engine/trans options they come up with in the UK. It took about 30 minutes to get used to the RHD for me but each person will have different learning curves and different requirements.

 

I have all of the receipts for the original engine/chassis purchase (photo copies as the state of Ohio required the originals) as well as all of the photos and sales literature from the Park Place sale. I've changed the oil every 2000 miles of city/highway driving.

 

I'm asking $42,000 for the car. If you have any questions please let me know.

In addition to my now 1 year + daughter i have twins on the way… just wow.

Price reduced from $55,000 to $42,000.

Hi Paul

Congratulations on the twins! You will feel better once the news has sunk in some more....I hope!

 

You may want to edit your original ad as it says "no longer for sale" at the very top. Somehow this is inconsistent with the price chop so I assume you are really selling the car as you need to fund the cost of having 2 more screaming kids on the way! :ack:

 

This is a real eye opening deal at $42k. Never seen a CSR that cheap before. Pity I am not in the market.

 

Good luck with the sale

Cheers

Thanks for catching that Mike and for the kind words.. I thought i had fixed it but am in a bit of a daze.. :-)

My dream of going to the track just went away but if the kids are healthy it will be exciting.

Take care

Ditto Croc's comments on price. Attention all lurkers-this is your moment to act!

Where is your car located? Do you have any additional pictures?

I don't know this particular car but that's a great deal for the next owner. If you're out there seriously considering a Cat, this is a lot of car for $42k. I've been fortunate enough to have a few nice cars over the years and nothing puts a smile on your face like a fast Caterham, it's just as much fun as it's possible to have on four wheels.
