Discussion
Just found my old info back with pictures from the lovely looking Caterham 21 GTO
the orange one on the web is not so good looking so I uploaded the better looking GTO
how many are there?
have fun reading/looking.
edit because pictures were gone, so placed them again and some new to me further in this thread.

So...not that many sadly, that Caterham 21c stands also for coupe?
are there also 21 with hardtop or is the GTO also a hardtop version of the 21.
at the time they came out they also mentioned LHD but seeing not many made are there LHD 21 at all?
and all made with only the rover k-series?

Ah, I also just read that story from you? on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caterham_21
but I don't read LHD 21, though I guess a few are made in LHD from those 48 or not...

so, no LHD cars origianally made, and the 2 race GTO's have hardtop so not a coupe....
is there more info about that RST V8 version? or pictures...
just found 2 very nice standard 21's in Germany for sale, they do cost though, and both indeed RHD, one 21 VHPD and one VVC

when you look at the dash it looks like its "easy" to convert it to LHD both parts look the same drivers side and passengers site of dash?
I thought caterham did this to make it easy for the LHD market, when the car came out I saw it on the carshow in the Netherlands the first year, a green one.

I have a feeling the exhaust causes a few issues putting the steering rack on for LHD.
don't know how it all looks under the hood, so then you need another engine with the exhaust on the other side? K-series the exhaust sits left? like a Duratec...hm, a 2.3 or 2.0 duratec isn't bad in such car I think.Golf Juliet Tang said:
Actually things are coming back to me: I think that there was one 21GTO nad one 21R.
The former is in the USA and has the RST. There are pictures on Caterham21.com
The former is still in Belgium.
For more details contact david at Caterham 21.com Do you want me to bring this thread to his attention?
Yes would be nice to read more about those specials, the one with the RST must be mental The former is in the USA and has the RST. There are pictures on Caterham21.com

Ginetta uses a nice lightweight V8 too, the Zytek V8, but think both are very expensive.

it has a RST V8 in it...jummie.

Just today came across a site in Germany were they sell or sold a Caterham 21 and had some nice pictures from a magazine with the 1 of 2? 21 GTO coupe's, just look at that one (last page the yellow coupe ), what a lovely thing, they could have build more, super light and can be fast with a smal-ish engine.
yes its in German, but I thought sharing it here, its to good and not much news/items around the very rare Caterham 21, sadly all? only came in RHD and only a handful in full aluminium body.
