CATERHAM SEVEN
Convertible (1999)
RARE K-SERIES SUPERSPORT
**1999 CATERHAM SUPER SEVEN SUPERSPORT 1.6 K-SERIES + RARE EARLY SUPERSPORT + EXTENSIVE HISTORY FILE + ORIGINAL CATERHAM DOCUMENTATION + MAJOR SPECIALIST ENGINE WORKS + INCREDIBLY WELL DOCUMENTED EXAMPLE**
A superb opportunity to acquire a beautifully analogue and increasingly sought-after 1999 Caterham Super Seven Supersport 1.6, finished in striking Caterham Yellow and powered by the hugely desirable 1.6 Rover K-Series engine — widely regarded by Caterham enthusiasts as one of the purest and most rewarding engine combinations ever fitted to a Seven thanks to its lightweight, rev-happy and engaging character.
Weighing little over 500kg, this Supersport delivers exactly what a Caterham should — raw steering feel, exceptional chassis balance and a truly connected driving experience that modern sports cars simply cannot replicate. Lightweight, mechanical and utterly addictive to drive.
This particular example stands out thanks to its extensive and exceptionally well-preserved history file, including its original Caterham Certificate of Newness, original Caterham post-build inspection report, early Arrowstar Racing invoices, specialist maintenance records, MOT history and supporting documentation — offering genuine provenance and confidence for the next owner.
Importantly, the car has benefitted from significant recent specialist expenditure with respected Caterham specialists Sevens & Classics, including substantial engine and cooling system works, such as:
Cylinder head removal, head gasket replacement using OEM elastomer gasket, cylinder head skim, liner shims fitted, bottom-end reassembly, cooling system overhaul and flush, expansion cap, ignition service including spark plugs and rotor arm, steering rack gaiter replacement, steering geometry/tracking adjustment, engine mounts, fuel filter and additional service items.
Additionally, the vehicle has recently undergone a comprehensive service and health check, including fresh Millers Motorsport 10W-50 NanoDrive oil, oil filter, air filter and full inspection, ensuring it presents exceptionally both mechanically and cosmetically.
A wonderfully documented, mechanically sorted and highly usable Caterham Supersport — ready to be enjoyed on spirited B-road drives, touring or simply as one of the purest driver’s cars ever built.
