Its on autrader from a trader called Gorse hill motor co in Swindon @ 10k - orange 55 plate 3 owner -with 1500 miles -but curiously it's a live axle xflow and has full roll cage.
Dealer just said it was pex but couldnt fill me in on its history which sounds suspicious
Doesn't seem to add up but maybe someone knows of this car locally ?

The car is not a Caterham I believe it is a MK Indy look at the front suspension.

Search the forum and you will find more info from the last time it was put up for sale.

yes this was discused on here about a week ago I think, it was checked via DVLA/hpi database and it's an MK, not a caterham.

It was also up for sale last October. Theres a nice long thread on Blatchat here. You'll notice the current seller does use the letters MK right at the very end.

Handy thread as i was due to look at this tomorrow in the belief that it was a gen Caterham!

Guessing its one to avoid with whats been said?
