New 'Locost' Caterham
muzchap - 9/1/06 at 03:12 PM

Seems the boys have been busy, they initally worked on the Ultra-Lite - but soon realised that dry-use only was a bit shite...

I think it's very in keeping with their client base, they are also cardboard cut-outs of real people!

All the gear and no idea... (its cardboard!)

Personally I love those aluminium rivets they have used... I wish mine were like that! :-)

Also - notice the Cham-pag-ne (as pronounced on Futurama by Zapp)

looks fast even when is stationary

I might just order one of those --- but just the basic plain vanila version don't want push the outside of the envelope.

Do you think Mr SVA man would have any issues with it? Dropped fag end may be an issue as well!

Don't you mean the manilla version?

It's the new lightweight. If it's the manilla version you just know the driver is going to be a "Bill".

Looks like it has the structural rigidity of a paper bag. Oh, it is a paper bag you say?
