New 7 Owner in Virginia

[TShu]

Recently picked this up this little fella.  Didn't know much about the history of Lotus and Caterham, I just liked the car!  It's been a blast to take to Cars & Coffee, etc.  It's something different so it always gets a lot of looks.  I've also learned that Lotus people are a tight knit group!  One note related to the car... many of the previous owners seemed to have been meticulous pack rats and kept all the paperwork, manuals, receipts, etc.  It's like a time capsule for the car and its been much appreciated for background information.  I love driving the care and looking forward to meeting fellow 7-ers!

Congratulations on your new car and welcome to USA7s!  Here is to a long driving season before winter kicks in!

 

I read your other post on cleaning up title issues - I cannot help you there but feel the pain from my own experiences in other states.  Good luck!

Congrats on your new Caterham!  That looks like Craig C's old car.

Congratulations and welcome.  Have fun, fun, fun.

Good eye, it is indeed!

Welcome to the Forum. I haven't been to many Cars & Coffee events but do enjoy them. I am not much of a early riser and my car isn't tagged. I live in Fairfax and it looks like we have several new owners in the DC area.

Look at that beauty! Welcome

It's amazing to see what a small world the Seven fraternity is!  Craig Chima, who previously owned TShu's Caterham - also owned my Caterham for a short while, before I bought it!  Also, another Great Falls, VA cars & coffee regular, Chuck S, owned a Westfield 7 for a couple of years... also, previously owned by Craig Chima.
