Looks genuine from the limited photos available. The dealer (Park Place) has sold Caterhams before. The Donky looks to have a Ford BD engine which makes it quite valuable for that alone (if it is in good shape and not needing a rebuild). Ali nosecone. I guess the price is low because it is viewed as an orphan by the market.

That's sounds like a screaming deal given the engine. mfast, if you're seriously considering the car, there's a slim chance I can swing by later this week and take a closer look. Send me a PM if you'd like to discuss.

Agreed - fantastic deal there.

 

Keep in mind - that BDA can be expensive to maintain and a replacement head will cost nearly half of the price of the car

I'm pretty sure that I'm gonna' be thrilled with my new S1 (I pick it up Sunday...) BUT, I'd have been all over this if it had been for sale a few weeks ago. We ran Cosworth BDA's in Formula Atlantic's back in the '70s & '80s and oh my... they sound very nice... a well tuned BDA is something special.

I just called the dealer. Lotus 1966 Super 7 Re-Creation 2,249 miles - $15950 (Park Place, Ltd. (Bellevue, WA)) is now SOLD

*crosses fingers that its headed to the north east!

I just missed the Donk by literally 5 minutes.

Sold while I was getting a price for shipping.

They said it was headed to Arizona.

Still kicking myself for not pulling the trigger 5 minutes earlier!

Sweet. Hopefully the new owner will chime in here. I finally got my S-1 here and am acclimating it Arizona's "atmosphere".

... and we find out that it was purchased by a guy that thought it was a dune buggy. We'll hear stories of how awesome the sandy rooster tails it makes are now that the fenders have been cut off and paddle tires added. )

Bwuhahahahaha

[coffee break]

Not much ground clearance for off roading!
