2007 Caterham CSR

Offering a bit over 200hp to motivate just 1,290 pounds, this Caterham CSR looks like a winning formula for proper early morning canyon runs. It is running a trusty 2.0L Duratec inline-4 engine managed by a custom tuned ECU, and the power is routed through a Type 9 gearbox with a semi-helical gearset and a limited-slip differential to put the power down right. A quick-ratio steering rack with an upgraded u-joint provide zero play and a direct steering feel, while adjustable coilovers offer predictable handling at the limit. This is about as raw and connected as it gets, and we hope this Caterham finds a home in the community where we are confident it will get all the fresh air and exercise it deserves.
