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 roadCATERHAM SUPERLIGHT car pic
