On Friday I signed for a Caterham 170R here in France.
I have until Tuesday when i pay to change my mind regarding the colour.
Which is your favourite between the two schemes below?



I honestly cant make up my mind.

Thanks
Ben

Blue for me, but I would go for the lightest possible wheels you can get hold of...even if you have to go aftermarket.

7s really do benefit from the lowest possible unsprung mass.

I don't think this post is going to help you reach a solution laugh

I do like bright colours with close coloured nose.cone and band.

We have had “ Nardo “ on a couple of fast Audis and the similar “ China “ on an Aston V12 so I’m biased but on the Caterham I’d want something a lot brighter generally.
Maybe Nardo with a bright orange on the front / stripes / roll cage.

Nice. The blue is my favourite from those two but i'd go for something like yellow or orange personally.

Fascinating car the 170, start a readers cars thread when you get it, would love to know how you get on with it.
