  • The Caterham Seven (or Caterham 7) is a small sports car produced by Caterham Cars in the United Kingdom. It is based on the Lotus Seven, a lightweight sports car sold in kit and pre-built form by Lotus Cars, from the late 1950s to the early 1970s. After Lotus ended production of the Lotus Seven, in 1972, Caterham bought the rights to the design, and today make both kits and fully assembled cars. 2007 marked the 50th year of production of the Lotus/Caterham 7. The Caterham Seven is a small, lightweight, two-seater sports car renowned for its performance and handling. Various other manufacturers offer a sports car in a similar basic configuration, but Caterham owns various legal rights to the Lotus Seven design and name. The company has taken legal action in the past in order to protect those rights. In South Africa, it lost its case against Birkin (a competitor) on the basis that it never obtained the rights from Lotus that it claimed it had. The modern Seven is based on the Series 3 Lotus Seven, though Caterham have developed it to the point that no part is the same as on the original Lotus.

  • Caterham Seven, brittisk sportbil. När Lotus 1973 beslutade att sluta tillverka modellen Seven, ansåg återförsäljaren Caterham att konceptet var alltför bra för att dö. Tillverkningsrättigheterna köptes, och tillverkningen har fortsatt sen dess. Enda skillnaden mot Lotus-bilarna var att de hädanefter hette Caterham istället. Namnet Seven ingick dock och har omsorgsfullt skyddats sedan dess. I början fortsatte man att tillverka Seven S4 tills dessa delar tog slut. Därefter återgick man till att tillverka bilar som ser ut som Seven S3. Man har till och med skyddat modellens utseende numera. Exempelvis konkurrenten Westfield som tillverkar en Seven-kopia har tvingats ändra utseendet på sina bilar. De flesta nya Caterham Seven är unika, men egentligen har man några grundmodeller; Classic är enklast och billigast. Då ingår en enkelförgasare och hastighetsmätare men inte vindruta. Super Sprint innehåller bland annat dubbla Weberförgasare, aluminiumhjul och vindruta. Caterham släppte våren 2006 CSR-modellen med en ny hjulupphängning och en motor tillverkad av Ford.
