Caterham pricing does the timewarp

Strong Aussie dollar sees Caterham pricing return to 1997

Caterham has shaved thousands of dollars from every model in the range with pricing now at levels not seen since 1997, thanks to the Australian Dollar currently performing well against the British Pound.

Caterham, Britain's second largest and second oldest car company after Morgan, will offer its entry-level Caterham Seven Roadsport SV 120 for less than $60,000 drive-away -- a reduction of over $10,000 from last year's sticker price.

Technically speaking, the Caterham range has changed little from the proven formula with the Superlight SV R300 the only model to receive significant upgrades.

For 2011 the track-ready Superlight adds a limited slip differential, dry sump lubrication system, tonneau cover, carbon fibre front guards, aero whisker, track day roll-over bar and battery isolation switch to the already impressive package.

Incidentally, the entire Caterham range is now Euro 5 compliant.

2011 Caterham pricing:
Roadsport SV 120 $54,480 (reduced by 16.1 per cent)
Roadsport SV 175 $73,510 (reduced by 11.4 per cent)
Superlight SV R300 $85,355 (reduced by 7.8 per cent)
CSR 175 $85,435 (reduced by 10.6 per cent)
