I always wanted this particular Caterham. I'd had many others but this was the pinnacle and the goal of Caterham ownership for me.

One came on the market 5 years ago and if I hadn't done the deal straight away the chance would have been gone, probably forever, they just never come up for sale.

Anyway, as the old saying goes "you should never meet your hero's", a stunning thing and a real talking point to those in the Caterham fold but a pig on the road.

I swapped it for my 80th and I've already done more miles in the MOG than I'd done in the last 3 years in the 7.

Love the thing as I do my Lotus. I'll keep them both now and not look for anything else in the near future, hoping residuals may be kind to me grin2
