The Appeal

If it ain't broke, why fix it? Seven decades on from Colin Chapman's first Lotus 7, the same essential formula lives on as one of the purest expressions of the lightweight sports car philosophy: minimal weight, maximum driver involvement, and a connection to the road that few modern cars can match. This 2006 Caterham Seven goes a step further, upgraded to Roadsport B specification by Caterham Midlands and later race-prepared by both Caterham and McMillan Motorsport.

The 1.6-litre Rover K-Series engine has been refreshed with forged pistons, and the car features a range of performance and safety upgrades suited to both track and road use. The service history documents regular race services, including flat floor setups, brake component renewals, and coolant system refreshes. The car comes with a generous package of extras including wet weather gear, spare brake components, anti-roll bar options and more.
