Catheram Superlight Wallpapers Overviews

Based on the standard Roadsport, the Superlight gains four-piston AP Racing brakes, Caterham's own close-ratio six speed gearbox, and wide-track, adjustable front suspension. It sits on bespoke 13 inch KN lightweight alloys wearing Avon CR500 rubber, developed as a lightweight road and track tyre for the car and looking suspiciously like a pair of cut slicks. The spare wheel has been ditched in favour of a can of foam, the carpets are gone as are the standard seats in favour of lightweight composite buckets with four-point harnesses and carbon fibre is used for the dashboard, rear arch protectors and front wings.

All this means the Superlight weighs 55Kg less than the Roadsport, which may not sound like much but in the case of such a tiddler actually represents a 10 per cent saving. Less weight means less inertia and less for the tyres to do in simply supporting the mass of the car so they can work harder gripping the road.

This one however has a windscreen, roof and even a heater, adding a whopping 18Kg -- Caterham list options for the Superlight by weight as well as price -- so I made up for it by packing light and skipping lunch. Wearing a tango paintjob, the loud, brash and bright orange Superlight is the automotive equivalent of a footballer's wife so what else is there to be done but thumb the optional red starter button and head cross-country for Cheshire and in particular the A537 Cat & Fiddle road.
