New for the road in 2002, the Superlight R300 represents the core values of the 21st Century interpretation of the Seven. Delivering a potent 300 bhp per tonne, the R300 skilfully mates the new 1.8 MG X Power engine to a minimalist lightweight chassis.

Together with giving more people access to the brand through a drilled down off-the-shelf product range, Caterham are building every car to order, allowing the tradition of a bespoke British sportscar to continue in a car market dominated by shared platforms and mass production.
