What Can I Expect

If you've ever wondered what a Caterham 7 driving experience is like, let us enlighten you on this legendary car before you decide whether or not to take it for a spin at a circuit of your choosing near you.

Yes, it has what can only be described as retro looks, but that's because the design is decades old. But boy is it a good one. Thanks to a Mr Colin Chapman, his design won many a motor race. And yes, it does only have 150bhp, which is about the same as a decent SUV on the roads today. But there's one very, very significant difference. The weight. And that's what makes the experience of driving a Caterham 7 what it is - utterly thrilling.

It's all about function over form with the Caterham 7. Forget your modern driving experience gubbins like ABS, traction control, air conditioning and even central locking, this car is stripped down to the bar minimum. Even the seat belts are harnesses rather than inertia type to save weight. All this is why it feels almost exoskeletal, with the exhaust running on the outside of the bodywork, exposed front suspension and bonnet hatches.

Inside the cockpit of the Caterham 7 it is, we admit, a 'bit of a squeeze'. The pedals are close together and the seats are so low that you can barely see over the windscreen. The heat generated from this little pocket rocket's brakes and transmission seems to seep into you and you feel every single bit of tarmac you drive over in the Caterham 7 - but that's what you call a proper driver's experience!

With your bottom just inches from the floor when driving the Caterham 7, you'll experience the sheer acceleration and how the car corners and stops like nothing else you have ever driven. It really is driving by the seat of your pants. With unbelievable levels of agility and grip, this is a real supercar slayer.

On these Caterham 7 driving experiences from Into The Blue, you will enjoy driving for six thrilling miles. Circuits are designed to allow you to experience the acceleration, cornering poise and outright speed of this motoring legend, rather than endless braking and power off moments. Get driving a Caterham 7 at a track new you!
