Brotus7 Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Something different Lots going on here https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1985-caterham-7/ I saw that listed on FB marketplace a month or two ago. Looks awesome and was asking $15 or 20k if I remember right l. Does the front upright look cracked at the lower ball joint? Hard to tell if it's a fracture surface or a painted weld. Doesn't look smooth and there doesn't appear to be much material inboard of the lower ball joint post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Croc Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 (edited) Oooh its back for sale. It had pending on the ad last weekend so I guess someone got chicken and pulled out. Mitsuoka are a small Japanese car company famous for some questionable looks. They are based on Mitsubishi models for the most part with the odd Toyota piece creeping in. The handling and performance dynamics will be pretty mediocre. Probably designed for ladies who lunch. The looks have not changed from the models offered back in the early 2000s when I lived in Tokyo. Some of their other models: The Rock Star The Himiko - which looks like a Morgan but probably will rust instead of be eaten by termites The Galue. The photo shows off some inartful photoshopping as the car would be underwater if it was there in real life. Its a LHD model with some wonderful front end jowls. I think it would suit Panamericano for a daily driver in Texas. Then there is the Viewt. A cute little 60s Jaguar look. The rear end styling looks like someone downsized Kim Kardashian's ass. The Mitsuoka Zero seven is by contrast a great looking car. Probably the best build quality of any seven ever. Sadly they do not make it any more. Wonder how hard it would be to get parts for it.
