Description:

For sale is a stunning Caterham R500 Superlight which was factory built in 2004. The car was originally supplied as a 1600 Roadsport A race car and was converted to R500 specification in November 2006. The logbook shows 3 previous owners and was originally supplied in Reflex Blue before being painted metallic orange. The work to convert the car was carried out by Minister Power and includes steel rods, a steel crank and Cosworth pistons. The bill from Minister (included) was for nearly £12k and includes the power graph.
