Caterham CDX SV

The Caterham CDX was a model which Caterham produced early in the 2000’s. The initials stood for Caterham Driving Experience, because, as the name suggests, these cars were built for use within Caterham as demonstrators. As such, they had every performance extra fitted as standard! The engines were either the 1.6 or 1.8L K-Series Supersport units, with the higher lift cams and racey engine maps. These were fitted with dry sump systems, including the uprated gold scavange pumps. Big brakes including the uprated master cylinder were also standard, as well as 6-speed gearboxes, limited slip differenentials and adjustable wide track suspension.

They were used for Caterham’ own experience days, as well as putting on a thrilling experience as private events, including the Autosport International show for a number of years. However not all CDX cars were used by Caterham for this purpose. Some where purchased brand new as private vehicles, because they were such well specified models.

This one isnt a polishers car, but is really well sorted where it counts. It has been very well set up and maintained well by its owners over the years. With it’s abundance of uprated Caterham components, it is the ideal car for serious fun, trackdays, light competition work, and for blasting around the country roads, without the need to be too precious over it’s cosmetics.
