Caterham CSR 200

The CSR was Caterham’s 21st century 7, designed again from the ground up using modern motoring technology. From an engineering point of view, it is without question the most advanced and capable 7 ever to be produced. The new chassis, complete fully independent rear suspension and inboard front suspension on push rods, significantly increase the overall grip and drivability of the car, whilst the new cockpit provides far more “up to date” place to be, incorporating things like self-cancelling indicators on stalks.

The CSR came in one of two models, the CSR 200, or the CSR 260. Both were powered by a 2.3L Cosworth Duratec engine. The 200 was fitted with a large single inlet plenum and produced 200bhp, this was developed to deliver a smooth and controllable supply of power to ultimately supply the best possible road going driving experience. The 260 model saw this inlet plenum replaced with throttle bodies and a more extreme set cams to offer a ferocious but slightly peakier 260bhp along with a heart-stopping soundtrack.

Only 39 CSR 200’s were ever been made for the UK marketplace. Complete with the CSR modular dashboard, this 200 delivers the full CSR experience, with vast quantities of torque, a supple refined ride and one of the UK’s greatest driving experiences. Having covered 36,000 throughout its entire life, this CSR is well sorted and ready to enjoy.
