With prices starting at \u00a333,495, or \u00a3325.99 a month for 48 months, for a car in component form, the 135bhp, five-speed Super Seven 1600 fits perfectly into Caterham\u2019s existing heritage line of products as a permanent addition, alongside the wildly popular limited-edition Sprint and Super Sprint models launched in 2016 and 2017 respectively.<\/p>\n

Inspired by the craftsmanship of the original Super Seven and the early cars created under the historic Caterham badge, the new Super Seven features a raft of retro details and styling cues.<\/p>\n

These include the classic flared front wings, retro-inspired 14\u201d alloy wheels, a spare wheel and carrier harking back to the touring Sevens of old, and a choice of Seven heritage paint finishes.<\/p>\n

In the interior, the retro experience continues, with a timelessly elegant wooden-rimmed steering wheel and classically tailored leather upholstery.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Designed to evoke the glamour, colour and joy of motoring in the 1970s, with none of the drawbacks of \u201870s technology, the new-for-2020 car is the first Super Seven to be offered in the wider, more comfortable large chassis (SV), as well as the standard version (S3).<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s not just the car\u2019s looks that hark back to the \u201870s \u2013 the Super Seven 1600 includes DCOE throttle body injection, found on any self-respecting rally car of the era and producing a distinctive growl, reminiscent of the twin \u201840s of the period.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Caterham CEO, Graham Macdonald, said: \u201cCaterham has always been about individuality and the quality engineering that makes the Seven peerless when it comes to the driving experience.<\/p>\n

\u201cOwnership of any specification of Caterham Seven is a mark of distinction and a ticket to driving adventure, but our heritage line of models holds a special place in the hearts of the true brand enthusiasts. Both of our most recent retro-inspired Sevens \u2013 the Sprint and Super Sprint \u2013 sold out in record time so we know the appeal for these cars is strong.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re excited to introduce the most powerful Super Seven ever built, a reimagining of a true modern icon, delivering exactly what the original was designed to offer \u2013 a focus on driving feel and race-inspired upgrades but with some touches of luxury to the finishes.\u201d<\/p>\n
