And 30 years later it starts……

So I have finally started the journey to building my Caterham.

Having had this on my to do list for 30 years, a few weeks ago a whim took me to Caterham South where having been plied with biscuits I finally signed on the dotted line. It would have saved me a packet to have done it 25 years ago. The prices were smaller as was my bulk which now necessitated me ordering lowered floors and the wide chassis. An expensive option and I am sure discriminatory against the larger gent or lady 🙂

Having driven the 270 with LSD and R pack I ended up ordering the 310 with S pack (another unfortunate side effect of the ageing process I fear – why no heated seat option??). I did opt for the removable screen so it will at least look a bit more hardcore on the odd baking hot day in the UK.

Car is due beginning of September. Meanwhile……….

Garage looks like this

Wife looks like this

A lot of work to do on both I fear
