:cheers: She passed the wife test! You can keep her!

 

I second that! Nice work drew8mc :hurray:

She'll go on one date in the car... and never ride in it again.

But if you get her a horse all sins will be forgiven.

Or worse yet, she'll want to drive it all the time.

Welcome to the forum!

 

We're located in Seattle, so feel free to contact us when you've relocated to the area. We always have several Caterham Sevens in the shop, and can arrange for test rides/drives with a bit of advanced notice.

 

Title/Registration in Oregon is very straightforward - so no worries there. Most of the comments regarding the Caterham in the thread are spot-on. Caterham has been doing this for a long time, and when all of the parts are in the box, the assembly is straightforward. There is very little locating and drilling, which tends to make the finished result for the first-timer a bit more consistent.

Mike - did I miss a message or call? Apologies if so, and let me know what you need.

Sorry Bruce, I just realized with my earlier generic comment that you thought was I critical of you which was not the case. I also just realized you are now an authorized Caterham dealer which was not the case when we last talked - I have always thought of you as outside the network. I amended my original post to clarify that. My apologies.

No worries at all! I truly did think I may have neglected a v-mail, as the pace of project work is frenetic at this time of the year.

Thanks everyone for the responses. Unfortunately we will be moving to Oregon at the end of June so I won't be able to make it down to NJ at all. But someone did PM me locally about having a car. I'll see if maybe he can take me for a ride.

 

The more research I do, the more I lean toward one of the more traditional sevens, rather than the Stalker, although having driven neither, what do I really know?

 

 

if you are movng to the greater Portland area give us a PM when you are settled. There's at least one Caterham (mine) and an Ultralite S2K not 5 minutes from me just southeast of the city.

Awesome. We have a one way flight on June 30th. I'd love to meet up with a Seven owner and get a ride. I'll be living in Beaverton.

We have a very enthusiastic Caterham CSR owner living in Salem, OR. I'm sure he would love to share his Caterham experiences with you. And his is a 300HP CSR with a Sadev sequential gearbox, full roll-cage, motorsport suspension...and a license plate.
