Description
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 optional CSR Modular cockpit provides far more “up to date” place to be, incorporating things like self-cancelling indicators and controls 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 260bhp along with a heart-stopping soundtrack.
This CSR260 is finished in Lamborghini’s Arancio Argos Orange paint and is perfectly complimented by Caterham’s Black Pack, Black 15″ Superlight CSR alloys and carbon fibre CSR cyclewings.
Despite this cars good looks, it is in need of some lite recommisisoning, with some rust areas around the rear suspension. Though this car is very much road worthy and will be supplied with a fresh MOT, it is being offered by Turn 7 as a project, for someone who has the time and diligence to go through it and give it the time and love it deserves.
Please feel free to contact us for any questions. As a project car, this example is offered MOT’d but without warranty. For more details please do get in touch with us.
