Caterham Seven S3

170R

Caterham 170R in metallic 'detonator yellow' - a spectacular colour - with attractive factory options such as:
- Carbon fibre front cycle wings and rear wings
- Lowered floor
- Full weather protection package (windscreen, hood, side-screens)
- Heater and 12V power supply
- Carbon leather seats and transmission tunnel
- Turn 7 LED headlights

This is the narrow-body, lowered-floor model. The lightest and most fun-focused version. The lowered floor makes the car usable for taller drivers as well. The weather protection package, heater, carbon leather seats, and improved headlights fitted on this car make it surprisingly suitable for longer journeys. While the Bilstein sports suspension and a Limited Slip Differential that come as standard on this 170R-model are must-haves for extra fun on road and track. This car also has a carbon-fibre dashboard, a Momo steering wheel with quick release, and 4-point harnesses. This is a unique combination of equipment that makes this specific car exceptionally suited for both road and track driving, with hardly any compromises.

The car has seen very limited and careful track driving - 2 charity events in Denmark and 2 laps of the Nürburgring. The rest of the kilometres have been driven on public roads.
The car has been stored dry in a heated garage and has not been driven in the winter months. The car has been professionally maintained by Caterham Nordics and is in
excellent condition.
Having driven several modern Caterhams, it is my opinion that the 170R is the most entertaining and enjoyable Caterham for road use and use on short and twisty tracks. It is the lightest Caterham / Lotus 7 ever produced at just 430 kg. The operating costs are exceptionally low. Lower than your typical small family car and vastly lower than any modern sports car. You really owe it to yourself and your wallet to try the 170R before spending your money on the more powerful versions.

The car is located in Denmark, 45 minutes from Copenhagen Airport and about 1,5 hours from the Rødby-Puttgarten ferry to Germany.
