Caterham Seven Superlight R500

The Superlight R500 is among the most extreme road-going Sevens: a 2.0-litre Ford Duratec with a dry sump, around 270bhp and very little weight to carry. This one is number 50 of the 174 R500s built since 2008, and was ordered new by a French customer, which explains the red and blue stripes on the white bodywork.

It has covered 8,350 miles from new and has had two previous owners. The engine has been remapped, though the page says the aim was a better cold start, torque and driveability rather than outright power. Other fittings include carbon kevlar seats, a Quaife six-speed sequential gearbox, a Tracsport limited-slip differential, R500 Bilstein dampers, a Raceco silencer, KN eight-spoke alloys and an AP Racing brake master cylinder.

The dealer describes the car as well maintained, with a large history file. Paint protection film covers the nose, side panels and rear wings.
