About this car

A 1998 Caterham Seven with the 1.6-litre K Series engine in 135 bhp Supersport specification, a combination that gives a very light car strong performance without the fragility of the more extreme builds.

It uses the S3 chassis with a De Dion rear axle and adjustable dampers, and is fitted with an FIA roll bar and four-point harnesses. Adjustable Caterham seats with armrests, Roadsport trim, a wet weather hood and a heater make it more usable than many Sevens, and it sits on R300 alloy wheels.

The page quotes 22,000 miles with full service history and says the last owner kept it for 22 years. It is described as MOT'd and serviced, and the owner's handbook is included.
