Description
The MK Caterham Indy R is derived from the iconic Caterham vehicles, known for their minimalist design and maximum focus on performance. These are lightweight sports cars that provide an extreme driving experience thanks to excellent handling, low weight, and powerful engines. These cars are ideal for those seeking fun both on the racetrack and on the road. Specifically, the Indy R offers an outstanding chassis with a multi-link suspension that ensures precise driving characteristics.
This particular 2008 MK Caterham Indy R has 6, 000 km on the chassis and 23, 000 km on the Yamaha YZF R1 engine with a 998 cc displacement. The engine is paired with a 6-speed sequential gearbox, which can be shifted with paddles on the steering wheel. Reverse is managed by an electric motor with a safety switch. The car features a Quaife limited-slip differential (LSD), quick Ford Cosworth steering (2. 8 turns lock-to-lock), and Wilwood braking system (front and rear). Carbon elements on the dashboard and fenders complement the sporty interior with leatherette seats and 4-point safety harnesses.
The car is ready for the season with recent maintenance, including an oil change, filters, brake fluid, and clutch replacement (original Yamaha). New LED front and rear lights and new rear tires have been installed. The car is also equipped with a new protective film that covers the original Gulf/ black color scheme.
