As I say, it will be my first Caterham, so I really cannot wait for early April. It replaces an R35 Nissan GTR, so quite a change for me. The GTR weighed in at c. 1770kg, the Twenty only 500kg!
The Lotus is a fine car too. The 3-Eleven has upped the game again, but at a silly price I cannot help feeling.
Fortunately, the weather here is somewhat more predictable than the UK. I figure 8/9 months of dry use, which is just as well as the Twenty (as I have specced it) comes with no heater, no weather gear, no doors and no windscreen!
