Foodeater Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 But Glenn, its there! Surely I would not have made a mistake having consumed champagne for breakfast with my family guests? Damn right I screwed up! Sorry! :seeya: is that 1980 Caterham posted somewhere and you forgot the link, or is that entry in error? I am extremely interested in finding a "cheap" Caterham, or any quality seven. Thanks again, Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Croc Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 Glenn - Look for the link below the photo and quotation from the earlier ad. If you cannot see it then your computer has a problem. The link works for me. If you still cannot see it then to find directly go to Craigslist Rhode Island and look cars for sale under Providence (its a city). The ad is listed with the location of Barrington (its a suburb of Providence).

It's in fact a Dutton clone, not a Caterham, wanted to clarify that for anybody on here that might have been interested, as the ad does not mention this.

Croc Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 Ben - Thank you for reporting back here. Thats a bit of a disappointment as it clearly described it as a Caterham in the ad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benhughlett Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Sure thing, been looking for a Caterham for a while and got pretty excited when I saw it listed. Sooo, if anyone knows of a Caterham for sale In any case, glad to be on the forums now- sure I'll be seeing ya'll around :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitcat Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 MichaelD's amazing Cat is listed here for a bit under $35K (I think). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croc Posted June 6, 2017 Author Share Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) Sooo, if anyone knows of a Caterham for sale Where are you located Ben? I have been having offline discussions with 2 people thinking to sell but looking for feedback on what the market is for their cars. Does it have to be a Caterham? On this forum you still have for sale: $36k (ok just over the budget) throttle body zetec S3 Caterham in michigan $28k Bruce's immaculate condition and maintained crossflow S3 $35k for MichaelD's S3 Caterham Zetec (already pointed out by Mike) and probably others as I go back through the classifieds list and see what has or has not sold.

Chopd65 Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 (edited) Ben, I have a 2001 Caterham SV that I was planning on listing later this month. It has a Zetec which I was told dyno'd at 218 hp, 5 spd, LSD and just under 9,000 miles. Let me know if you might be interested. Best regards, Bill Edited June 10, 2017 by Chopd65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APinSoFl Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 just under 9,000. Dollars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitcat Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 I will hazard a guess that 9,000 is the mileage, not the dollars:). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Croc Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 (edited) 1978 Caterham 2L Ford YB engine turbocharged 350hp Narrow tires. S1 look body modifications Over $100,000 spent. Price is on request - if you have to ask you cannot afford it. http://vintageracecarsales.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/unspecified.jpeg http://vintageracecarsales.com/portfolio-view/1978-caterham-super-7-turbo/ The site also has 2 original Lotus 11s and a Lotus 17 - a good spot to look at the various offerings even though they are not sevens http://vintageracecarsales.com/portfolio-view/1957-lotus-eleven-s2/ http://vintageracecarsales.com/portfolio-view/1956-lotus-eleven-series-1/ http://vintageracecarsales.com/portfolio-view/1959-lotus-17/ 2007 Caterham SV Hayabusa 1400 $60k http://race-cars.com/carsales/other/1458694360/1458694360ss.htm 2008 Caterham 7 R400 turbo $54900 buy it now Custom Caterham R400 Superlight Duratec Turbo • Aluminum 2.0 Duratec Block and heads • 8:1 forged pistons • Fully programmable stand alone AEM ECU with AEM harness. • Custom professionally fabricated turbo manifold • Custom professionally fabricated front mounted Air to water intercooler • Current dyno tune at 340+ rear wheel horsepower ( not a guess actual dyno) • Titan motorsports tune • Caterham 6 speed close gearbox (just refreshed) and new custom 4 puck clutch • Taller rear end installed with original in spares pack • Full set of new Avon CR500 road tires on new set of Caterham anthracite rims plus spare tires • Custom carbon front fenders sized for the AR500’s • Full set of Hossier A7’s with additional set of Caterham anthracite rims plus some spare tires • Custom carbon front fenders sized for the Hoosiers with rear pressure vents • Fully adjustable suspension • 1300lb wet, with 170lb driver and perfect corner weight This car would be well in excess of $100k to reproduce , it has the best of everything and is extremely reliable. Drive it to the track day, put your trophy in the back and drive home. Overall and supercar winner of the 2013 Bahamas Speedweek Revival sprint race. A genuine 0 – 60 time of less than 2.7 secs is possible, the much envied Caterham 620R has 310 crankshaft horsepower with this car beating it in every measurable metric. The AEM ECU and custom tune virtually eliminates turbo lag with the power coming on early and evenly. The custom features are just too many to list, car comes with a full clean Florida road title and the pictured spares.
