Noticed that @caterhamcarsltd on Instagram posted this with just tomorrows date in the caption...

Can't make out what the second photo is. Something wrapped in some kind of technical fabric behind a hexagonal grill...

Fingers crossed it's something equivalent to the 310 in terms of price and performance, but may well just be a limited edition!

Wow, caterham impresses again with their half arsed amateur attempts at marketing.

Ffs Macdonald get a grip on your company and make it look at least half decent.

So it's a 420? I wonder where Caterham are getting these new 2.0 Duratec motors? I couldn't find one anywhere when I was looking. Plenty of 2.5's about, but a new 2.0 is like rainbow unicorn poo.

Seems like very few elements of this couldn't already be spec'd on a 420. From my count, it's only the adjustable dampers, central fuel filler, 6 point harnesses, and the "special" interior trimmings. However, if you spec a 420R with a sadev, 620 dash, shift lights, etc, you will see that this "cup" is indeed a good deal I believe.
