Lotus Caterham Super Seven on 2040-cars
Salt Lake City, Utah, United States
|
Caterham Super 7 Sprint “Classic SE” – Immaculate condition. This is a fully street legal (licensed and titled in Utah), all-weather Caterham with all street gear – full top, side doors with windows, windshield wipers, aircraft-type electric defrosting windshield and cabin heater. It also includes a bolt-on rear spare tire carrier and spare (wheel identical to the others.) It is the “Caterham Classic SE” model with 1600 Ford (Kent engine) with DCOE40 Webers and 4-speed transmission and weighs approximately 1100 pounds. The differential is an Ital unit with 1/4 ” plate reinforcement on the housing SE as used on the Caterham Challenge Series race cars. Fully adjustable gas Spax shocks. It includes custom-fabricated aluminum doors and side screens (not to be confused with the factory soft doors and full windows, also included). These aluminum doors attach to the factory hinges and make the car a lot more civil for highway use as they reduce the tremendous buffeting a normal doorless 7 produces. As with the factory doors they are readily removable. The Cibie headlights and turn signals have been relocated for better aerodynamics and an updated appearance. The headlight relocation is a custom bolt-on application and was done without destroying any of the factory parts so the headlights can be relocated to the original position quite easily if you prefer the classic Lotus 7 look. The car has been driven about 12,000 miles since new (mostly highway use), has never been damaged and everything works perfectly. It has always been stored in a dry garage, under a car cover. It is ready and can be driven across the country If the buyer wants to fly in and drive it home. However, other arrangements would have to be made for the extra set of tires and Superlite wheels (identical to those shown in the photos except they are Michelin street tires. The tires shown on the car are Toyo R888. The interior includes the adjustable leather Caterham bucket seat option (includes headrests) with full carpeting throughout. Extremely comfortable. Graphics (number spots and other stickers (which were applied for car shows only) are all removable vinyl. This Caterham is a fantastically fun street driver and the perfect car for track days. The Caterham factory Manual and Assembly Guide is also included along with all receipts. The car is being offered at $25,000. New Caterham kits are priced from $45,000 to $90,000 Buyer will provide own transportation of vehicle which will be released upon receipt of full purchase price in cash. Please call for more details.

Lotus team out of Le Mans, full driver list published
Tue, 20 May 2014We can scratch off one more car from the list for the 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans. The Lotus T129 LMP1 car has been dropped from the entry list of the 82nd running of the historic race, with organizers citing "a lack of preparation" as the reason. On a more positive note, the list of 168 drivers in 56 vehicles has been officially published for the June 14 race.
Like the Lotus team currently in Formula One, the Lotus T129 uses the iconic British brand's name and colors but is actually built by a separate company. It previously ran a Lola chassis in the LMP2-class (pictured above). The Le Mans organizers claim the car will likely be on display during the 24-hour race, but it won't make it's competition debut until the World Endurance Championship round at the Circuit of the Americas in September. The T129 is being replaced by an Oreca 03 chassis with Nissan power in the LMP2 class, entered by Millennium Racing.
The Lotus' retirement came as the teams had to send in the names of the three drivers nominated to race each car. This year there are racers from 26 countries with the most coming from France (39), Britain (29), the US (17) and Italy (15). The latest tally of entries breaks down to 9 LMP1s, 19 LMP2s, 9 LM GTE Pros, 18 LM GTE Ams and the Nissan ZEOD RC as the experimental Garage 56 entry.
Caterham inks US distribution deal with Superformance
Fri, 03 Jan 2014Sort of like an automotive big box store, Superformance is rapidly becoming the destination for anyone interested in modern kit cars. Besides the normal spattering of Shelby Cobra replicars, Superformance also offers replicas of the GT40 and Corvette Grand Sport. Now, we can add an altogether different type of DIY car to the company's portfolio - Caterham.
Superformance has just been announced as the new US distributor for Caterham Cars, effectively adding the entire suite of Lotus variants to the company's catalog. While there will be a large variety of models available, according to Caterham the mix will skew toward more powerful offerings. As much as we like the affordable appeal of a Seven 160 or Roadsport, simply having the wildly powerful 620 R or Superlight R500 available in the US is a good thing for enthusiasts.
"In the last two years, Caterham has significantly broadened its reach internationally and signing a new official distributor in the form of Superformance in America is a natural extension of how our brand is expanding, rapidly, across the globe," Caterham Group CEO Graham Macdonald said.

Lotus F1 confirms Grosjean, Maldonado for 2015
Wed, 19 Nov 2014With the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix now just ten days away, the focus is beginning to shift to next year's Formula One World Championship, with more and more pieces to the puzzle falling into place. And the latest news comes from the Lotus team. The Enstone-based outfit has confirmed that it's keeping both its drivers right where they are for next season, with Romain Grosjean partnering Pastor Maldonado once again.
Swiss driver Grosjean, now 28 years old, made his grand prix debut with the team in 2009, returned as test driver in 2011 while winning the GP2 title, returned to the F1 grid in 2012 and has been driving for the team ever since. He's scored nine podium finishes to date, but has finished no better than his eighth place this season.
Venezuelan pilot Maldonado, 29, won the GP2 the year before his teammate, and moved up to F1 with Williams, for whom he drove for three seasons before switching to Lotus for this one. He shocked the field when he won the Spanish Grand Prix in 2012, but has only finished in the points once this season.
