theDreamer Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 @Sevins7 WOW! What a ride that auction was. What was it, $11,000 over reserve? You have to be happy that two people wanted it THAT much. Good luck with your move and the new adventure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sevins7 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Damn...I thought it wasn't making reserve just 20 minutes to go...then....... Sad but extremely happy with the result. As someone mentioned...this was a unicorn and really deserved the price. Mahalo for all the kind words everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cueball1 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Congratulations 🎉. That's quite often how bat works. Car sits cheap until the last 10 minutes of the auction. So glad it paid off for you! Best of luck with your move. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car_Guy Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 The lower frame on the front of that stalker looks weird, but definitely nice protection of the oil pan and transmission, and provides a bigger radiator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anaximander Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 In reality, if the owner was having any difficulties on the track with all of the added radiator, it is likely that all he had to do was remove the current fan and he would be getting much better flow-through cooling. I was the second owner of that car and bought it from a very experienced Stalker builder who had really dialed it in and during my tenure with it, I romped around the mountains and even did a couple of autocrosses with it. It is a very stable car that blew the doors off a Hellcat one day when I came up to a light outside the city limits. The Hellcat owner asked what I had in it for an engine and I said, just a LS3/480. I said to him that he had 707hp but he also said he weighed x2 as much as I did or more and it wasn't a fair acceleration comparison to the speed limit and maybe a couple of miles over . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sltous Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Partially completed kit in Sonoma, CA area: https://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/pts/d/el-verano-lotus-caterham-super-kit/7666504687.html By the way, it looks like Search Tempest has started using a technique to map all advertisements 1,000 miles from [location] to get around Craigslist's rate limiting, I am not sure how effective this is but it may be an option to bring back Craigslist advertisements to this aggregator. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provided someone likes the color, it's an interesting option for someone considering ordering a kit. Given it's in Sonoma, I wonder if Kampena Motorsports is involved in some way?

MoBoost Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 The cars in the first picture have license plates that are not California. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnCh Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Good catch. Not only not CA plates, but not US plates. This one shows a building with Caterham signage and RHD cars in the parking lot. Given it's a '21 model year and not yet completed, I'm curious to hear the back story. I suppose it could be a scam, but they would certainly be chasing a very limited market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croc Posted September 30, 2023 Author Share Posted September 30, 2023 Photos are taken outside the Caterham Dartford location - look up Kennet Road. Obviously wheeled the kit out for a photo op - actually very common request by dealers to gee up their customers. Is the seller, Kampena Motors given the Sonoma location?

JohnCh Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Interesting. The only photo I received was taken in a dimly lit portion of the factory by my dealer when he was there. Other requests were ignored. They must have known I was a Westfield owner I had wondered about a Rich Kamp connection but didn't find anything on his website. It's a nice spec and the asking price is just about what it costs at current currency conversion rates less the international shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
