I can't believe it's been two years since the kit was
delivered! But yes, two years ago the kit arrived, and the fun began!
 |
| Two years ago today, I first saw my R500 in the metal! |
A couple of months later, it was
finished... well kinda :-)
 |
| The build was finished by end of March (with a two week holiday in-between!) |
And nearly another
three months after the car was finished, I got it back...
 |
| Three months later it was finally road worthy, and on it's way back to me! |
Two years in, I'd say the ownership has had it's fair share of issues, (all of which are now sorted-I hope!) there were plenty of general build frustrations and other nu-ances, but I am still very happy with my decision to buy, and build a Caterham. The driving experience on the other hand has been superb, it really is one of the best, if not the best car to drive, I really do love it!
There's already a fair number of items from this years '
prep list' completed, so there's only a few bits left to do to finish the prep off and then she'll be ready for this years blatting action, albeit on and off track!
