R300 AEC is a superb, low mileage (14,000 miles) example of a factory-built Caterham Superlight R300. When the spec was agreed, this Caterham went from £22,995 up to £29,260 with the full weather gear, Rover K-series 1.8L engine, Metallic Viper Blue paintwork and limited slip differential making up the bulk of the extra costing. Following the build sign off from Caterham, this R300 was first registered on the 1st of March 2005 and headed to its first owner by the River Thames. With a tremendous list of options, beautiful appearance, and a breath-taking driving experience, it truly is the epitome of the renowned Caterham motor cars. Weighing almost 100kg less than your average Seven, this Caterham redefines the traditional expectations of agility and performance offered by the marque. Some colour combinations are exceptionally easy on the eye, the carefully preserved metallic Viper Blue paintwork draped over the aggressive body lines holds a deep finish. The carbon fibre front wheel arches and carbon fibre patchwork on the rear wings offer a brilliant contrast to the bright paintwork. Looking inside the car, the instruments fall onto a Carbon Fibre dashboard home to other essential gauges offering no distraction from performance. The driver is supported by superbly supportive bucket seats and secured by 4-point safety harnesses. In front of the driver's seat is an exceptionally sporty MOMO steering wheel, tying the knot on the interior's no-frills aesthetic. The 1.8L K-series engine offers 160bhp at 7500rpm and when placed into a chassis and body weighing shy of 500kg, you are propelled to 60mph in around 4.5 seconds. The performance specified 6-speed manual transmission feels exceptionally correct with brilliant gear ratios. With such a low centre of gravity, the limited-slip differential and superbly sticky, staggered fit Avon semi-slick tyres, the Seven is superbly sure-footed. The normally aspirated engine produces a fantastic noise when you open up the throttle placing you into a truly immersive experience of overwhelming sense of speed, exemplary noise, and unadulterated performance. Accompanying the car is a very comprehensive history file to include invoices dating back to its running in service, notably having its timing belt replaced at 10957 miles. We will carry out an engine service and MOT the Caterham within the price listed, as the only other thing it will require is a new owner to thoroughly enjoy the impressive performance offered by this stupendous motor car.
