As modern cars continue to isolate the driver from the driving experience, the Caterham Seven 160's beauty is in its simplicity. Every control is supremely communicative, and helps you maximise your enjoyment of the car's agility. To extract maximum performance, the engine needs to be worked hard, but that just adds another level of driving engagement that very few cars can match at any price.
Although 80bhp doesn't sound like much, the 160 only weighs 490kg, giving a power to weight ratio of 163bhp per tonne and a top speed of 100mph. The clutch pedal is light and the stubby 5 speed gearstick snicks around its gate with ease. The steering is totally unassisted, but it's not heavy, and the rack is fast, giving very quick, faithful response from the tiny wheel that gets heavier as you build speed.
If you dream of a car to take out for a Sunday B-road blast, it's among the very best. It's engaging and challenging to drive when the mood takes you, but soft and supple when you're cruising.
Purchased as a kit in 2016 our Caterham was meticulously assembled and completed in 2017. It was then checked over by the Lotus dealer in Bristol and signed off for inspection. Sadly due to ill health it remained in the owners garage and never registered until we purchased it recently.
We have now had it inspected by the DVSA and have had it registered all ready for the new owner to enjoy.
