New 'Locost' Caterham

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)

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

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

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

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