    As somebody looking at this and the 620s your reviews have been fantastic. Thank you. Would love more Caterham reviews, specifically comparisons as it seems to be a common question with both this and the 620 being a similar price second hand.

    You can buy a zip up hood roll bag that can sit on the top of the boot tonneau and also additional luggage bags. A quick Caterham is a phenomenal car, so pure, so immersive, so visceral, so quick, so unique, so special that it is the benchmark for all performance cars.

    That car is awesome. I don't think I've ever seen one before they should bring them to the United States if they haven't already. Good video thx!

    Christ I thought Porsche were the masters of rinsing you for options, but Caterham have taken the crown I think! Still a superb fun day car.
    But I think I'll stick with my 981 Boxster S 😉 Having done over 3000 miles in it this summer with the ability to raise and lower the roof at 30mph plus a boot both front and back its hard to beat. I also have a track set up MX5 that cost buttons.

      Yeah, that's a fair shout! I guess they start with the ultimate in simplicity then charge for each and every complication thereafter. Want it built? Want a windscreen? Want decent headlights? That'll be extra, sir... they still make for a compelling proposition and their residuals are exceptional (last time I looked!) so you get back what you put in. Reaching this time of year, however, the Boxster certainly becomes the more appealing proposition.

    52k, for a stripped car is asking a Lot for very little.
    I get the whole less is more thing for performance.
    But this is like a Harley motorcycle . Tomorrows prices for yesterdays tech.
    Sorry, but simply not worth it. $2500 for them to build it says a lot too.

    420 BHP per ton, hence the 420R name.

    • @CarYenta
      @CarYenta Месяц назад

      210 bhp yes but not 500 kg, more like 560-590 kg depending on options, so it's not 420 bhp/tonne

    Caterham's might be a ton of fun but they're over-priced.
