About this car

This is a 2021 Caterham Seven 270R set up for racing rather than road use. It runs the 270R's wide-track suspension and an aero screen, with power quoted at 135 bhp from the 1.6-litre engine. The dealer says it could be upgraded to 310R specification if the next owner wants more performance.

It is finished in a gloss black wrap and has covered 8,400 miles. The seller says around £14,000 has been spent on it over the past year. Work listed includes new discs, pads and brake lines, engine mounts, a radiator, the De Dion rear axle, a rear anti-roll bar, upper wishbones and a gearbox.

The car is described as ready to race in the 270R championship and other series, needing only a race transponder.
