1974 CATERHAM SEVEN
Registration No:YJT378M
Chassis No:CS33557R
MOT:October 2018
Fitted with 2000cc Alfa Romeo twin-cam engine
Understood to have been raced in period
Very early example
Automotive genius though he was, one imagines that the late Colin Chapman would be rather surprised that the Lotus Seven he launched at the 1957 Earls Court Motor Show, and then sold the manufacturing rights for in 1973, was still being built, bought, raced and enjoyed the world over, courtesy of Caterham. Fitted with a raft of different makes and sizes of engine over the years, this early example of the breed features one of the more potent options - a 2000cc Alfa Romeo twin-cam unit. The bodywork of 'YJT 378M' is finished in a combination of Red and polished aluminium, it is trimmed in Black vinyl and rides on Minilite-style alloy wheels. Understood to have been raced in period, the Seven is considered by the vendor to have 'very good' paintwork, interior trim, bodywork, engine and transmission. He is offering the Seven complete with period photographs, V5C and MOT certificate valid into November 2019.
