Scalextric Caterham 7, CSCC Anglesey

Scalextric Caterham 7, CSCC Anglesey  C3309
History

The first Seven was built in 1957 by Lotus, the brainchild of Colin Chapman, who was convinced of the advantages of small lightweight racing cars, giving huge power to weight benefits. He actually referred to the Seven as something he had dreamed of designing since he was a schoolboy - a 'four wheeled motorbike'. The quickest Caterham - the R500, introduced in 1999, has a 0-60 time of 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 146 mph.

    Race : CSCC, Anglesey, June 2013

The Caterham and Lotus 7 has always been popular within the Scalextric stable with nineteen livery options. With these little pocket rockets still in great demand we thought it time to bring two more liveries back to the range.
