Ferret for sale - 420R

The Marketplace Cars For Sale / Wanted
1

I’ve had a fantastic three seasons following those delinquent ex/current Exigers, the Ferrets, around some great tracks in an inefficient sideways style :smiley: . Current situation aside I’m not getting many opportunities to come out and play, too busy with the new job. Hence I’m putting the Caterham up for sale. I thought I’d share it on here as it’s a great evolutionary step for Exige owners :laughing:

Very nice Wes, and a great price too. Wrong time for me unfortunately.

Are you going to track the green machine? :mrgreen:

Yes, will do eventually. But to preserve the warranty the inspections before and after is a pain, so no immediate plans.
The intention is to do a few road trips instead.

I’m all over that Will. I had Le Mans booked with PH this year with my son (postponed but September now hopefully). That loooooog road “oop norf” you may very well know and I fancy a tour of Bavaria Germany with Stuttgart thrown in. I especially would love that trip back to Germany, great country and wonderfully people. I took too much for granted living there as a young soldier. I need to put that right.

Good luck Wes, understandable. Very proud of what you are achieving with McLaren. Making us proud :sunglasses:

Now my family have left Germany for New York, I yearn for an excuse to go back. Nyloc tours and our regular trips to Nuremburg (DTM races) have given me a love of the country, the beer and the food.

Wes,

I may be interested when things open up again. I want to see if a lot more power and a sequential box will convince my son he does fit a Caterham. Maybe Phill can take it to a track and I can wedge him in it!

Btw, I’m at the AMRC near you regularly, I work at the University. I did a digital manufacturing project with the the AMRC. I can bore you about it.

Keith can I slap your son :smiley: in a get a grip kind way :laughing:

He’s 6ft 4inches, risk it if you like. Actually he would not hurt anyone, he’s just complex. As you know, he was talent spotted driving a rally car when he was 11 (first time he had driven) and a team owner at the airport offered him a drive in a 911, he turned it down … argh.

What a fantastic colour.

Hi Keith,

Would be good to catch up when some level of normality returns. I run a regular Tillet type seat, I reckon a bag seat like Ben runs might give even more headroom.
