So, they could be making a Lotus 7!
Welll... IF... true and not an effort towards Free publicity.... Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Besides isn't one Singapore originated owner pretty well the same as another?
IMO Pore old caterham has most certainly lost it's way over the decades.
Their production was always limited by 'aggressive' pricings, a carried over Lotus tradition.
So much so that there/have mushroomed up dozens upon dozens of "clone" Seven makers/vendors.
Not to mention Legions of DIY ers :-)
IMO it's just a direct reflection on Caterham that this even happened.
So :-) So Sad.. Too bad.
Just buying them cos they know how to hire good lawyers ?
