Caterham 7 2000XE Millington/Coscast

1990 Caterham 2000cc X.E. For Sale.

This car belonged to a very good friend of mine who sadly passed away in 2023, his daughter has asked me to sell the car on her behalf.

Originally purchased as a De Dion starter kit (original invoice available)

This car competed in the Caterham Vauxhall Challenge and raced in that series until 1998. The car was fastidiously maintained by Sebah Race Team.

Ownership passed to my friend in 1999 and it was converted (by Sebah) to road spec. and registered. Occasional Track Days and road use followed.

Approx. 3 years ago a very high specification engine was built (professionally) also Elite IL200 sequential 5 speed 'box fitted along with other upgrades.

2000cc Millington aluminium block, Coscast aluminium head, Arrow Billet Steel crank(£3,500), Arrow rods(£1,400), Omega pistons(£600),Liners(£1000),titanium valve springs etc. etc....

Resulting in 260 B.H.P. - dry sump, ZF L.S.D., Custom SS manifold/Raceco exhaust etc.

The car has always been garaged and has been worked on throughout its life by the same Race Mechanic.

It has had virtually no use since the engine was upgraded. It is a "Track focused car" in its present trim, but will be sold with all parts that are needed to pass M.O.T. I.e. Wipers/windscreen/handbrake cable and calipers etc.

The car was damaged enroute to its first outing at Cadwell Park track day (whilst being trailered) caused by a van hitting the trailer resulting in the rear panel and rear "basket" being replaced by Arch Motors. Rear suspension parts including new bearings/hubs/ears/de dion tube/radius arms were all replaced with new (under insurance).

There are three folders of paperwork dating back to 1989 inc. Original Caterham invoice. Full Tonneau,side curtains inc.

Personal number plate "C7 XTC" and V5 included - History of the cars journey to this point can be told by me (too long a story to type!)

Price is £21,000.

The Type9 SCCR Gearbox, Original 2000cc XE engine (stripped for inspection) & propshaft could be available to the purchaser and could be supplied as an alternative to the sequential 'box to make the car more road friendly.
