    Totally agree with this. The seats are surprisingly comfortable. I’ve driven the 360r and thought that fantastic, I think the 420 maybe the best option. I always tell people if they like driving and not driven one of these then they need to.😎

    Good to watch your enthusiasm. In another life I owned a Lotus 7 Mark II, only 70 bhp, but as you say, an amazing experience. Nothing has been able to be compared since then.

    Man, they are awesome cars. Had many memories from the end of the 90s when my father owned a Lotus 7, series 4 with a lotus twin cam big valve with L2 cams. I was in my teens and drove it lots including on the track occasionally. Only down sides were, other drivers didnt see it and often pulled out at last minute, two in winter when it rained coming back from a long drive, the vinyl roof were worse than a sieve, three engine would blow up, and cost fortune to rebuild. Other than that was so exciting to drive.

    I’m surprised that the driver didn’t find that thing fluttering from the rear view mirror distracting, good video though!

    God what a bunch I moany wingy toss pots on your comments mate ! I loved your smiles and laughing and enthusiasm I really enjoyed the video, I’m a huge caterham fan and I think I’d be laughing like that too if I was lucky enough to drive one :) thanks for the video mate and ignore all the negative tossers on these comments as half of them wouldn’t know a good car if it ran over them!!!

    I agree. Caterham is the best drivers car ever. No exceptions. I benchmark every car I’ve ever owned back to my 7. A 7 gives you the biggest high ever. There is no substitute.

    for everyone interested, you can buy a 360 and if you want, you can go to caterham and they can upgrade it to the 420

    I noticed the trim/piping around the 2 holes on the seat where the seatbelts go through was coming off that's a bit of a let down. This is me being picky but if I had a car like that I'd want it to be perfect.

    I love caterhams, never been in one myself yet, I plan to rent one. I have been a passenger in a Morgan 3-wheeler which was awesome! Can you find and review a Ginetta g40r ? And on the opposite side... VW Phaeton - not a newer one, a older one :)

    I have watched a few Caterhams being driven by blokes such as yourself. Funny thing, they all seem to have the same gripes about the same things. You don't mention any of these problems.
    I know it is a loaner and you want to be on their good side, but if you want to be believed, quit sounding like a salesman and throw a little honesty in your review.
    Sorry if that offends you. It is called CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. It is meant to make you a better reviewer.
    Love the car. Love your enthusiasm. Keep up the good work.
