It’s just listed as the RS Seven in the review section, and it is in the Caterham news area (top right on the Caterham page) there’s a post about it selling out on 10/16.
I love the Caterhams for their raw power and elemental driving experience. They’ve been at it so long that I think they are the only people who could make a car from Colin Chapman lighter.
im surprised there’s nothing here yet about the rs levante super 7 , 500 bhp, 500kg (dont mention wheelspin to the caterham guys though)
