Ah but the caterham is really just a continuation of the lotus 7

the kit car industry does have a little bit of copykatness as when the TT first came out there was a few TTalikes The atom being a stark and well recognized car gets the same treatment

Or have something in a similar ballpark for £2K

Put a 2L turbo K in it and 250hp in about 300kg.....

Anyone comparing that abomination to the Atom, or even to the Caterham/Lotus/Westfield for that matter, seriously needs to get some counseling.
