I saw one in FC2Ks pic and had to post this:

Well spotted!  It was one of my dads first ever cars, kept mainly for sentimental value.  Hes planning on restoring it (again) eventually, but hes been saying that for years

Anyway, Ive forwarded that link to him.  Adding more weight to my argument that we should build one of these instead...

From my pics at the Lane Motor Museum:

Caterhams are amazing.

Clicky

The turn-in is just astonishingly crisp and sharp and the overall cornering ability is incredible!!!

You cant beat a lightweight car!

No No No No No No No.  Its the proper one.

Only nice thing about that MG is that it is the same age as me just like my 52 BSA 500cc

And the fact that theyre pretty stunning when theyre nicely restored.

I still wouldnt have one though, could buy a decent 2nd hand TVR or a nice new caterham for the same money as restoring it  :shock:

fc9k thats georgous.

i love the original chromed hubs

Proper one would be a real Lotus 7?

If you went back 40 years, yes.  Were in the 2006 now though and Caterham have had the rights to the 7 for decades
