The Caterham 7 Roadsport is the lightweight sportscar for all conditions. Combining high performance on the road with the practicality of weather protection, as well as the ability to excel on track that is inherent in all Sevens, this is the Caterham that will do it all.
Standard equipment includes 14" alloy wheels, 5-speed gearbox, heater, hood, full windscreen, weather equipment and a carpeted interior. A large range of upgrades and optional extras are available should you wish to add even more performance to your 7.
The Roadsport is available with both the standard chassis and the wide-bodied 'SV' chassis. The standard chassis offers the compact lightweight dimensions that have made the Seven a legend in its 50 year history.
The SV chassis gives increased interior and luggage space due to the greater width and length of the car, making it suited for extended touring or for customers over 6'2" in height. The SV also benefits from the additional stability offered by wide-track front suspension and increased range from a larger fuel tank, with only a 25kg weight penalty over the standard chassis. The SV option is available as an optional extra for just £2,000.
