Caterham Seven Monaco

Caterham has launched a special version of its iconic Seven. Based on the Roadsport 125, the Monaco is supposed to ‘evoke the elegance, class and rich motorsport heritage of Monte Carlo’.





Regardless of whether it achieves that or not, the brushed aluminium bodywork with black nose and wheel guards certainly looks the part. The red and white stripes (a reminder of the Monegasque flag) and the ‘Monaco’ script aren’t too subtle though, and might not be to everyone’s taste.



But the price should more than make up for that. While the standard Roadsport 125 costs £21,200, the Monaco (which features a normally optional black leather interior with red highlights) is £20,995. Even better, the first twenty cars ordered will be offered at a bargain £19,995.



Power comes from a 1.6 litre Ford Sigma engine, which produces 125 bhp (93 kW / 126 PS) and 162 Nm (120 lb/ft) of torque. That might not sound like much but, as the Seven only weighs 550 kg, 0-60 mph (96 km/h) takes just 5.9 seconds. Top speed is 112 mph (180 km/h), and a five-speed gearbox is fitted.



As with other Roadsport models, the Monaco can be specified with the SV chassis option. Costing £2,000 extra, this increases the length and width of the car, improving cabin space and luggage capacity. Another benefit is the greater range from a larger fuel tank. Although there’s a 25 kg weight penalty, Caterham says the SV chassis particularly suitable for anyone over 6’2” (187 cm).
