S1Steve Posted October 23, 2010 Posted October 23, 2010 Great pics. I'll check it out in a few weeks. And get ready for the fun on Nov.14 !!!!!
DeanG Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 Very nice. The multiple colors on the front suspension give it a bit more pop.
KiwiBirkin Posted October 25, 2010 Posted October 25, 2010 Blubarisax great looking car I love the colour and the strips combo, enjoy your new ride as much as you can before winter.
Croc Posted October 25, 2010 Posted October 25, 2010 The photos just do not do the car full justice. It is a great looking color combination in the flesh. The dual black stripes set it off beautifully. Ben at Caterham does a nice job of putting these together with lots of nice attention to detail. A couple of things were very noticeable to me: - the duratec installation is far neater and tidier than my SVT zetec. Just seems to be more clear space around the motor and the plumbing seems cleaner. Plus it is a great looking motor. - first time I have seen lowered floors. If I get a new Seven I definitely will have this as an option. You are settled nice and low - much snugger position. Also has to be good for avoiding a little more wind buffetting.
11Budlite Posted October 25, 2010 Posted October 25, 2010 Beautiful car and nice photos too! Hope to check it out in person some day...
jturrell Posted October 25, 2010 Posted October 25, 2010 Very cool. Are the Nitrons standard? I also noticed that you went with a flat-bottom steering wheel. I've always wondered when you buy one of these Momo's, do they come pre-drilled, or do you drill them?
blubarisax Posted October 25, 2010 Author Posted October 25, 2010 Thanks, the Nitrons are not standard but do look marvelous (and handle well too). The Momo does not come drilled but it was not too hard do do. I am a big guy so I needed the leg room and the open top makes so I can see the gauges.
jturrell Posted October 26, 2010 Posted October 26, 2010 Bummer . . . I thought I might be getting a completely unexpected upgrade! They do look sexy.
supersportsp Posted October 26, 2010 Posted October 26, 2010 That looks suspiciously not like Montana. Do you have that titled as a '57 Lotus Seven in Montana?

There is a long and interesting story that would address the question that your keen powers of observation have identified - best described over a few (too many) beers.

Croc, got your IM. I figured this was the case. Having spent my whole life near or in MT, I just didn't want to make sure I hadn't missed some area I had never seen before.
