Hi all, this is my first post on the Ginetta forum.
I've been a Caterham fan and owner for some years, but I'm looking for something different now.
The G4 has caught my eye for some time, after seeing one at Cadwell Park - it's such a lovely looking car.

Before I go off wasting someone's time and my own time looking at any for sale, I thought It would be a good idea to check out the size and fit and get an idea of weather or not I could live with owning one.

So is there anyone up in the Lancashire area who has one and who would be willing to let me try for size. I'm not asking to drive your precious, just a sit in the drivers seat and pick your brains.

Cheers

I'll be racing mine at Cadwell on 24th July with the CSCC - you are more than welcome to come poke about in it.

Cheers, Paul

...if he can fit in a tight, uncomfortable (after a few hours driving) Caterham, he'll fit a G4.

He'll probably think he's in heaven!!
