Description

Caterham Superlight R300 SV - R400 200bhp Upgrade - Viper Blue A rare opportunity to own a highly desirable Caterham Superlight R300 SV, finished in the stunning and eye-catching Caterham Viper Blue metallic. With genuine cult status, the R300 is becoming increasingly sought after, and this well-cared-for example has been in my ownership for the past 11 years. The car has been used exclusively during the summer months for Caterham and Lotus 7 Club runs and annual European touring holidays. Every winter it has been carefully stored in a dry garage on axle stands beneath a fitted car cover. It has been serviced annually and meticulously maintained by myself throughout my ownership. The cambelt and water pump have been replaced twice by Retro Sports Cars Ltd, most recently at 45,580 miles on 9 May 2025. The gearbox and limited-slip differential oils were replaced by Turn 7 on 1 October 2024. A comprehensive history file accompanies the car, including invoices, servicing records and documentation covering my ownership. If you're looking for one of the most engaging driver's cars ever built, this Caterham delivers an experience that few cars can match. Every journey feels special, whether on a twisting B-road, a European road trip or a club run.
