I'd be fairly sure it would be too small- both width and length.

Cheers,
James

More likely as its very similar sizes at the front - thing the rear locost / ST is larger but i couldn't guarantee it.

Try before you buy (or at least measure a lot)

Probably not... I've owned an MK and a Caterham and the S3 7 is a tiny-wee thing by comparison!

I was just thinking about that the other night... I was claustrophobic in my old Caterham when I was 12 stone. There's no way I'd fit in one now that I'm... ahem... a touch bigger!

Or you could ask Welderman for one?

I have one in my garage that was almost a perfect fit for my Super6.

I just never got round to fitting it.

Ill take some measurements if you'd like.
