Caterham
Roadsport - A perfect combination for those inviting "B" roads
 The
Caterham Seven Roadsport has brought together MG-Rovers technology and
Caterhams engineering to produce a car that is truly inspiring to drive.
Powered by MG's state of the art all alloy fuel injected 16 valve catalytic
engine, this latest Seven provides high performance with renown reliability.
The result is a very light car providing exceptional levels of balance and
road holding.
The car is available with three different
power units, offering a choice of 115bhp, 140 bhp or 165 bhp, and when
coupled to Caterhams' 6-speed gearbox, provides a car with electrifying
performance. In addition, the 165 bhp unit boasts variable valve control,
giving the best of both worlds; high torque at lower revs with maximum power
at higher revs.
The Roadsport is supplied as standard with
14-inch alloy wheels, full screen and weather equipment, fresh air heater
and cloth seats and is based around the well-proven de Dion chassis. It is
an ideal choice for customers whose requirements include more road use than
track and is ideal for Sunday afternoon blasts down country lanes and
touring. However, this car is still extremely capable on the track, and with
a few track options will be completely at home lapping the circuits of UK
and Europe.
