Where to buy my first SV

[DouglasBen]

Hi all! Total noob here but getting ready to soon own my first 7! This is where the fun/worry starts! I've done a few dealer visits, and realised that SV is the way to go for me and my passengers. I reckon around 130/150 hp, and really like the roadsports. Will go with leather seats and harness rather than tillets etc. now the money will not be available for 6 weeks max as due to house sale, and not really got a deposit, so anyone suggest what to go for and where to look? Main drives will be blast and perhaps track day per quarter. But I have no race experience except corporate days, so very little spec is likely to produce the Smile! Oh and budget around 20 k if I can. All thoughts welcome! Thanks guys and gels.

Sorry live near camberley Surrey, have a roadster booked for the day in 2 weeks to make sure for me, and have spoken to sevens and classics and pt sports.

It would be worth going and having a mooch around Caterhams showroom, they have a lot of 2nd hand cars, and will provide some good advice.

Thanks, yes have spent some time with James at Caterham, and that's what got me to the SV choice, oh and lowered seats....

7s and Classics at Brands Harch will give you good advice as well.
