Caterham Seven 160S

The 160 model is a fantastic modern-day harp back to the Sevens of old, with small, 80 horsepower engines, reduced grip from skinny steel wheel and a classic live axle feel.

For this, Caterham turned to Suzuki who provided a fantastic 660cc turbo charged, three-cylinder engine, complete with 5 speed gearbox and live axle. This package when dropped into the lightweight Seven chassis made for a thrilling little sports car, which moves about underneath you, but doesn’t get you in trouble for accidently achieving ridiculous speeds.

This “S” edition makes for an extremely usable car, with plenty of torque to explore the roads here in the UK or abroad. And thats just what this cars only owner has done. Plenty of exploring and road trips. In fact, so usable is this car, in its 8 year life this owner has managed to chalk up 37,500 miles. As well as using this great little Seven, he also very diligently mainted it, with services carried out every 6 months throughout its life. He’s even kept a record of every tank of fuel it has ever had!

This budget, modern Caterham offers tremendous driving pleasure, with excellent reliability, extremely thorough history and great cosmetic appearance. Whats not to like?
