The Roadsport was Caterhams road bias model, with well spaced out gear ratios, comfortable interiors and full weather gear.

The 420R is widely regarded as Caterham’s best overall model from their current range. Its naturally-aspirated 2.0L Duratec engine provides awesome power, sharp throttle response and excellent drivability to go with Caterham’s superb Seven chassis.
The HPC model stood for “High Performance Course”. Caterham felt at the time that the performance of these cars was so great they had a moral responsibility to ensure those who bought them were prepared. So they enrolled all new owners of these cars on a course to teach them how to manage the cars abilities.
This Supersport is very similar to an original Caterham Superlight, with all the same mechanical running gear.
This very presentable Roadsport SV is an excellent way of getting into the Caterham range and enjoying the open roads.
The 1.6 VCT-i Sigma engine superseded the original Sigma in 2014. Offering variable cam timing these later engines produced a little extra torque and power, as well as a small additional improvement on fuel consumption. This meant that the entry level engine increased from 125bhp to 135bhp, and the uprated version of this engine increased from 140bhp to 152bhp. This soon led to the model names being changed from Roadsport and Supersport, to 270 and 310. Unfortunately, this incredibly reliable and diverse engine has now gone out of production and as such is no longer a part of the Caterham range.
The 310 model offers the perfect balance of power and grip for maximum fun and usability. A notable upgrade from the 270, the 310 provides more power throughout the rev range, which is also extended over the 270 model. This provides that extra punch when picking your way through traffic and gives the 310 a racier feel with its higher rev limit.
