Description
Caterham Superlight R500 K
This is R500 chassis No 2, the first customer car (Chassis No1 being a press car) supplied new in Ferrari Rosso red. First registered on 1st of March 2000 so 25 years old now. Powered by a Minister 230 bhp engine (power-to-weight ratio to 500bhp per tonne) connected to the Caterham 6 speed gearbox, this car has covered just 8200 miles. The original owner had the car for 15 years and he had the Engine rebuilt back at Minister race engines just as a precaution. Amazing condition for it's age, Come with a huge pile of paperwork including the original order emails and receipt. Personal number plate R500 two included. I have owned it for over 5 years now and have loved owning it but lack of use forces sale. Located near Plymouth but could possibly deliver at cost if required. Call for a chat or video walk round if your interested.
